##### Table of Contents

|(4) | To supplement our net income presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we use the non-GAAP financial measure of net income, which is adjusted from results based on U.S.
GAAP to exclude share-based compensation, interest expense of convertible notes, changes in fair value of certain liabilities carried at fair value, amortization of intangible assets from acquisitions and gain on bargain purchase of a business. This
non-GAAP financial measure is provided as additional information to help our investors compare business trends among different reporting periods on a consistent basis and to enhance investors overall understanding of the historical and current
financial performance of our continuing operations and our prospects for the future. This non-GAAP financial measure should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for or
superior to U.S. GAAP results. In addition, our calculation of this non-GAAP financial measure may be different from the calculation used by other companies, and therefore comparability may be limited.

Risks Related to Our Business and Industry

We may be unable to effectively manage our rapid growth, which could place significant strain on our management personnel, systems and resources. We
may not be able to achieve anticipated growth, which could materially and adversely affect our business and prospects.

We have experienced rapid growth and significantly expanded our business recently. Our net revenues grew from $36.4 million in 2007 to
$134.4 million in 2009 and $197.0 million in 2010. In addition to organic growth, we have also grown through strategic acquisitions. As of the date of this annual report, we have 19 sales and delivery centers, including 13 in China, two in Japan,
three in the United States and one in Taiwan. As of December 31, 2010, we had 9,285 employees, as compared to 1,527 employees as of January 1, 2007. We are actively looking at additional locations to establish new offices and expand our
current offices and sales and delivery centers. We intend to continue our expansion in the foreseeable future to pursue existing and potential market opportunities.

##### Table of Contents

Our rapid growth has placed and will continue to place significant demands on our management
and our administrative, operational and financial infrastructure. Continued expansion increases the challenges we face in:



| |  |  | recruiting, training, developing and retaining sufficient skilled technical, sales and management personnel;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | creating and capitalizing upon economies of scale;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | managing a larger number of clients in a greater number of industries and locations;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | maintaining effective oversight of personnel and offices;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | coordinating work among offices and project teams and maintaining high resource utilization rates;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | integrating new management personnel and expanded operations while preserving our culture and values;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | developing and improving our internal administrative infrastructure, particularly our financial, operational, human resources, communications and other
internal systems, procedures and controls; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | adhering to and further improving our high quality and process execution standards and maintaining high levels of client satisfaction.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Moreover, as we introduce new services or enter into new markets, we may face new market, technological and
operational risks and challenges with which we are unfamiliar, and it may require substantial management efforts and skills to mitigate these risks and challenges. As a result of any of these problems associated with expansion, our business, results
of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected. Furthermore, we may not be able to achieve anticipated growth, which could materially and adversely affect our business and prospects.

Adverse changes in the economic environment, either in China or globally, could reduce our clients purchases from us and increase pricing
pressure, which could materially and adversely affect our revenues and results of operations.

The IT services industry
is particularly sensitive to the economic environment, either in China or globally, and tends to decline during general economic downturns. Accordingly, our results of operations, financial condition and prospects are subject to a significant degree
to the economic environment, especially for regions in which we and our clients operate, such as the United States, Europe, China and Japan. The recent crisis in the financial and credit markets in the United States, Europe and Asia has led to a
global economic slowdown, with the economies of those regions showing significant signs of weakness. During an economic downturn, our clients may cancel, reduce or defer their IT spending or change their IT outsourcing strategy, and reduce their
purchases from us. The recent global economic slowdown and any future economic slowdown, and the resulting diminution in IT spending, could also lead to increased pricing pressure from our clients or greater difficulty in collecting accounts
receivable. The occurrence of any of these events could materially and adversely affect our revenues and results of operations.

We face
intense competition from onshore and offshore IT services companies, and, if we are unable to compete effectively, we may lose clients and our revenues may decline.

The market for IT services is highly competitive and we expect competition to persist and intensify. We believe that the principal competitive factors in our markets are industry expertise, breadth and
depth of service offerings, quality of the services offered, reputation and track record, marketing and selling skills, scalability of infrastructure and price.

In the IT outsourcing market, we face competition from the following major competitors:



| |  |  | Chinese IT services companies, such as Camelot Information Systems, ChinaSoft International Ltd., HiSoft Technology International Limited, Longtop
Financial Technologies Limited, Neusoft Group Ltd., and VanceInfo Technologies Inc.;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Indian IT services companies, such as Cognizant Technology Solutions Corp., HCL Technologies, Infosys Technologies Ltd., Tata Consultancy Services Ltd.
and Wipro Technologies;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | offshore IT services providers in emerging outsourcing destinations with low wage costs such as Southeast Asia, Latin America and Eastern Europe; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

##### Table of Contents

| |  |  | in-house IT departments of large corporations.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------

To date, we do not typically compete directly with the larger global consulting and outsourcing firms, such as Accenture plc, or Accenture, Cap Gemini S.A., or Capgemini, Hewlett-Packard Company, or
Hewlett-Packard, and International Business Machines Corp., or IBM, who are typically engaged in conjunction with large global projects. However, we may compete with these firms if they seek smaller engagements, particularly in conjunction with a
strategy to enter the domestic China market. In addition, the trend towards offshore outsourcing, international expansion by foreign and domestic competitors and continuing technological changes will result in new and different competitors entering
our markets.

In the IT outsourcing market, clients tend to engage multiple outsourcing service providers instead of using an
exclusive service provider, which could reduce our revenues to the extent that clients obtain services from other competing providers. Clients may prefer service providers that have facilities located globally or that are based in countries more
cost-competitive than China. Our ability to compete also depends in part on a number of factors beyond our control, including the ability of our competitors to recruit, train, develop and retain highly skilled professionals, the price at which our
competitors offer comparable services and our competitors responsiveness to client needs. Therefore, we cannot assure you that we will be able to retain our clients while competing against such competitors. Increased competition, our inability
to compete successfully against competitors, pricing pressures or loss of market share could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Due to intense competition for highly skilled personnel, we may fail to attract and retain enough sufficiently trained personnel to support our operations; as a result, our ability to bid for and
obtain new projects may be negatively affected and our revenues could decline.

The IT services industry relies on
skilled personnel, and our success depends to a significant extent on our ability to recruit, train, develop and retain qualified personnel, especially experienced middle and senior level management. The IT services industry in China has experienced
significant levels of employee attrition. Our attrition rates were 17.7%, 12.8% and 19.8% per annum in 2008, 2009 and 2010, respectively. We may encounter higher attrition rates in the future, particularly if China continues to experience
strong economic growth.

There is significant competition in China for skilled personnel, especially experienced middle and
senior level management, with the skills necessary to perform the services we offer to our clients. Increased competition for these personnel, in the IT industry or otherwise, could have an adverse effect on us. A significant increase in our
attrition rate could decrease our operating efficiency and productivity and could lead to a decline in demand for our services.

Additionally, failure to recruit, train, develop and retain personnel with the qualifications necessary to fulfill the needs of our
existing and future clients or to assimilate new personnel successfully could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Failure to retain our key personnel on client projects or find suitable
replacements for key personnel upon their departure may lead to termination of some of our client contracts or cancellation of some of our projects, which could materially and adversely affect our business.

Our success depends substantially on the continuing efforts of our senior executives and other key personnel, and our business may be severely
disrupted if we lose their services.

Our future success heavily depends upon the continued services of our senior
executives and other key employees. In particular, we rely on the expertise, experience, client relationships and reputation of Tianwen Liu, our founder, chairman and chief executive officer. We currently do not maintain key man life insurance for
any of the senior members of our management team or other key personnel. If one or more of our senior executives or key employees are unable or unwilling to continue in their present positions, it could disrupt our business operations, and we may
not be able to replace them easily or at all. In addition, competition for senior executives and key personnel in our industry is intense, and we may be unable to retain our senior executives and key personnel or attract and retain new senior
executive and key personnel in the future, in which case our business may be severely disrupted, and our financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.

If any of our senior executives or key personnel joins a competitor or forms a competing company, we may lose clients, suppliers,
know-how and key professionals and staff members to them. Also, if any of our business development managers, who generally keep a close relationship with our clients, joins a competitor or forms a competing company, we may lose clients, and our
revenues may be materially and adversely affected. Additionally, there could be unauthorized disclosure or use of our technical knowledge, practices or procedures by such personnel. Most of our executives and key personnel have entered into
employment agreements with us that contain non-competition provisions, non-solicitation and nondisclosure covenants. However, if any dispute arises between our executive officers and key personnel and us, such non-competition, non-solicitation and
nondisclosure provisions might not provide effective protection to us, especially in China, where most of these executive officers and key employees reside, in light of the uncertainties with Chinas legal system. See Item 3.D. Key
InformationRisk FactorsRisks Related to Doing Business in ChinaUncertainties with respect to the PRC legal system could have a material adverse effect on us.

##### Table of Contents

We generate a significant portion of our revenues from a small number of major clients and any loss of
business from these clients could reduce our revenues and significantly harm our business.

We have derived, and
believe that in the foreseeable future we will continue to derive, a significant portion of our revenues from a small number of major clients. In 2008, Microsoft Corporation, or Microsoft, contributed more than 10% of our net revenues; and in 2009
and 2010, Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd., or Huawei, and Microsoft each contributed more than 10% of our net revenues, together accounting for 34.4% and 37.3% of our total net revenues, respectively. In the aggregate, our top ten clients accounted
for 49.7%, 56.7% and 54.3% of our net revenues in 2008, 2009 and 2010, respectively.

Our ability to maintain close
relationships with these and other major clients is essential to the growth and profitability of our business. However, the volume of work performed for a specific client is likely to vary from year to year, especially since we are generally not our
clients exclusive IT services provider and we do not have long-term commitments from any of our clients to purchase our services. A major client in one year may not provide the same level of revenues for us in any subsequent year. The IT
services we provide to our clients, and the revenues and income from those services, may decline or vary as the type and quantity of IT services we provide changes over time. In addition, our reliance on any individual client for a significant
portion of our revenues may give that client a certain degree of pricing leverage against us when negotiating contracts and terms of service.

In addition, a number of factors other than our performance could cause the loss of or reduction in business or revenues from a client, and these factors are not predictable. For example, a client may
decide to reduce spending on technology services or sourcing from us due to a challenging economic environment or other factors, both internal and external, relating to its business. These factors may include corporate restructuring, pricing
pressure, changes to its outsourcing strategy, switching to another IT services provider or returning work in-house.

The loss
of any of our major clients, or a significant decrease in the volume of work they outsource to us or the price at which we sell our services to them, could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

If we are unable to collect our receivables from our clients, our results of operations and cash flows could be adversely affected.

Our business depends on our ability to successfully obtain payment from our clients of the amounts they owe us for
work performed. As of December 31, 2008 and 2009 and 2010, our billed accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts, totaled $9.5 million, $17.5 million and $26.3 million, respectively, and our unbilled accounts receivable, net of
allowance for doubtful accounts, totaled $18.9 million, $51.6 million and $75.6 million, respectively. Our largest client accounted for 27.6% and 26.0% of our net accounts receivables as of December 31, 2009 and as of December 31, 2010,
respectively. Since we generally do not require collateral or other security from our clients, we establish an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon estimates, historical experience and other factors surrounding the credit risk of specific
clients. As of December 31, 2008 and 2009 and 2010, the provision made for doubtful accounts was $0.3 million, $0.4 million and $2.3 million, respectively. However, actual losses on client receivables balance could differ from those that we
anticipate and as a result we might need to adjust our allowance. There is no guarantee that we will accurately assess the creditworthiness of our clients. Macroeconomic conditions, including related turmoil in the global financial system, could
also result in financial difficulties for our clients, including limited access to the credit markets, insolvency or bankruptcy, and as a result could cause clients to delay payments to us, request modifications to their payment arrangements that
could increase our receivables balance, or default on their payment obligations to us. As a result, an extended delay or default in payment relating to a significant account will have a material and adverse effect on the aging schedule and turnover
days of our accounts receivable. If we are unable to collect our receivables from our clients in accordance with the contracts with our clients, our results of operations and cash flows could be adversely affected.

In many cases our client engagements are not long-term, and our clients may terminate contracts before completion or choose not to renew contracts,
which could adversely affect our business and reduce our revenues.

Our clients typically retain us on a non-exclusive,
project-by-project basis and are not obligated for any long-term commitments to us. Many of our client contracts can be terminated by our clients with or without cause. There are a number of factors relating to our clients that are outside of our
control which might lead them to terminate a contract or project with us, including:



| |  |  | financial difficulties for the client;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------



| |  |  | a change in strategic priorities, resulting in elimination of the impetus for the project or a reduced level of technology spending;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

##### Table of Contents

| |  |  | a change in outsourcing strategy resulting in moving more work to the clients in-house technology departments or to our competitors;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the replacement by our clients of existing software with packaged software supported by licensors; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | mergers and acquisitions or significant corporate restructurings.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------

In addition, some of our client contracts specify that if a change of control of our company occurs during the term of the contract, the
client has the right to terminate the contract. If any future event triggers any change-of-control provision in our client contracts, these contracts may be terminated, which would result in our loss of revenues in the future. If our clients
terminate our contracts before completion or choose not to renew our contracts, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.

If we are not successful in obtaining and managing increasingly large and complex projects, we may not achieve our growth goals and our results of operations may be adversely affected.

As our domain knowledge in the industries we serve deepens and our relationships with clients strengthen, more clients
have engaged us to undertake increasingly large and complex projects. To successfully obtain and manage larger and more complex projects, we need to establish closer relationships with our clients and develop a thorough understanding of their
operations. In addition, we may face a number of challenges managing larger and more complex projects, including maintaining high quality control and process execution standards and controlling costs. In addition, we must maintain close client
contact and high levels of client satisfaction, while at the same time maintaining continuity in personnel engaged in a particular project.

Our ability to successfully obtain and manage larger and more complex projects depends significantly on the skills of our management personnel and professionals, some of whom do not have experience
managing large or complex projects. Larger and more complex projects may involve multiple engagements or stages, and there is a risk that a client may choose not to retain us for additional stages or may cancel or delay additional planned
engagements. Such cancellations or delays make it difficult to plan for project resource requirements.

If we are not able to
successfully obtain engagements for larger and more complex projects, we may not achieve our growth goals. Even if we are successful in obtaining such engagements, a failure by us to effectively manage these larger and more complex projects could
cause us to lose business and may adversely affect our reputation and results of operations.

The growth and success of our business
depends on our ability to anticipate and develop new services and enhance existing services in order to keep pace with rapid changes in technology and in the industries we focus.

The IT services market is characterized by rapid technological change, evolving industry standards, changing client preferences and new
product and service introductions. Our future growth and success depend significantly on our ability to anticipate developments in IT services, and offer and develop new product and service lines to meet our clients evolving needs. We may not
be successful in anticipating or responding to these developments in a timely manner, or if we do respond, the services or technologies we develop may not be successful in the marketplace. The development of some of the services and technologies may
involve significant upfront investments and the failure of these services and technologies may result in our being unable to recover these investments, in part or in full. Further, services or technologies that are developed by our competitors may
render our services uncompetitive or obsolete. In addition, new technologies may be developed that allow our clients to more cost-effectively perform the services that we provide, thereby reducing demand for our services. Should we fail to adapt to
the rapidly changing IT services market or if we fail to develop suitable services to meet the evolving and increasingly sophisticated requirements of our clients in a timely manner, our business and results of operations could be materially and
adversely affected.

We may be unsuccessful in entering into strategic alliances or identifying and acquiring suitable acquisition
candidates, which could impede our growth and negatively affect our revenues and net income.

We have pursued and may
continue to pursue strategic alliances and strategic acquisition opportunities to increase our scale and geographic presence, expand our service offerings and capabilities and enhance our industry and technical expertise. However, it is possible
that in the future we may not succeed in identifying suitable alliances or acquisition candidates. Even if we identify suitable candidates, we may not be able to consummate these arrangements on terms commercially acceptable to us or to obtain
necessary regulatory approvals in the case of acquisitions. Many of our competitors are likely to be seeking to enter into similar arrangements or acquire the same targets that we are looking to enter into or acquire. Such competitors may have
substantially greater financial resources than we do and may be more attractive to our strategic partners or be able to outbid us for the targets. In addition, we may also be unable to timely deploy our existing cash balances to effect a potential
acquisition, as use of cash balances located onshore in China may require specific governmental approvals or result in withholding and other tax payments. If we are unable to enter into suitable strategic alliances or complete suitable acquisitions,
our growth strategy may be impeded and our revenues and net income could be negatively affected.

If we fail to integrate or manage acquired companies efficiently, or if the acquired companies do not
perform to our expectations, we may not be able to realize the benefits envisioned for such acquisitions, and our overall profitability and growth plans may be adversely affected.

Historically, we have expanded our service capabilities and gained new clients through selective acquisitions. Our ability to successfully
integrate an acquired entity and realize the benefits of any acquisition requires, among other things, successful integration of technologies, operations and personnel. Challenges we face in the acquisition and integration process include:



| |  |  | integrating operations, services and personnel in a timely and efficient manner;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | unforeseen or undisclosed liabilities;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------



| |  |  | generating sufficient revenue and net income to offset acquisition costs;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | potential loss of, or harm to, employee or client relationships;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | properly structuring our acquisition consideration and any related post-acquisition earn-outs and successfully monitoring any earn-out calculations and
payments;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | retaining key senior management and key sales and marketing and research and development personnel;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | potential incompatibility of solutions, services and technology or corporate cultures;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | consolidating and rationalizing corporate, information technology and administrative infrastructures;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | integrating and documenting processes and controls;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | entry into unfamiliar markets; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------



| |  |  | increased complexity from potentially operating additional geographically dispersed sites, particularly if we acquire a company or business with
facilities or operations outside of China.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In addition, the primary value of many potential targets in the
outsourcing industry lies in their skilled professionals and established client relationships. Transitioning these types of assets to our business can be particularly difficult due to different corporate cultures and values, geographic distance and
other intangible factors. For example, some newly acquired employees may decide not to work with us or to leave shortly after their move to our company and some acquired clients may decide to discontinue their commercial relationships with us. These
challenges could disrupt our ongoing business, distract our management and employees and increase our expenses, including causing us to incur significant one-time expenses and write-offs, and make it more difficult and complex for our management to
effectively manage our operations. If we are not able to successfully integrate an acquired entity and its operations and to realize the benefits envisioned for such acquisition, our overall growth and profitability plans may be adversely affected.

If we do not succeed in attracting new clients for our services and/or growing revenues from existing clients, we may not achieve our
revenue growth goals.

We plan to significantly expand the number of clients we serve to diversify our client base and
grow our revenues. Revenues from a new client often rise quickly over the first several years following our initial engagement as we expand the services that we provide to that client. Therefore, obtaining new clients is important for us to achieve
rapid revenue growth. We also plan to grow revenues from our existing clients by identifying and selling additional services to them. Our ability to attract new clients, as well as our ability to grow revenues from existing clients, depends on a
number of factors, including our ability to offer high quality services at competitive prices, the strength of our competitors and the capabilities of our sales and marketing teams. If we are not able to continue to attract new clients or to grow
revenues from our existing clients in the future, we may not be able to grow our revenues as quickly as we anticipate or at all.

As a
result of our significant growth and acquisitions in recent years, evaluating our business and prospects may be difficult and our past results may not be indicative of our future performance.

Our future success depends on our ability to significantly increase revenue and maintain profitability from our operations. Our business
has grown and evolved significantly in recent years, through both organic growth and strategic acquisitions. Our significant growth and several acquisitions in recent years make it difficult to evaluate our historical performance and make a
period-to-period comparison of our historical operating results less meaningful. We may not be able to achieve a similar growth rate or maintain profitability in future periods. Furthermore, certain members of our senior management team have worked
together for a relatively short period of time, and it may be difficult for you to evaluate their effectiveness, on an individual or collective basis, and their ability to address future challenges to our business. Therefore, you should not rely on
our past results or our historic rate of growth as an indication of our future performance.

You should consider our future prospects in light of the risks and challenges encountered by
a company seeking to grow and expand in a competitive industry that is characterized by rapid technological change, evolving industry standards, changing client preferences and new product and service introductions. These risks and challenges
include, among others:



| |  |  | the uncertainties associated with our ability to continue our growth and maintain profitability;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | preserving our competitive position in the IT services industry in China;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | offering consistent and high-quality services to retain and attract clients;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | implementing our strategy and modifying it from time to time to respond effectively to competition and changes in client preferences;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | managing our expanding operations, including the integration of our past and future acquisitions, and successfully expanding our solution and service
offerings;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | responding in a timely manner to technological or other changes in the IT services industry;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | managing risks associated with intellectual property; and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | recruiting, training, developing and retaining qualified managerial and other personnel.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If we are unsuccessful in addressing any of these risks or challenges, our business may be materially and adversely affected.

We face risks associated with having a long selling and implementation cycle for our services that require us to make significant resource
commitments prior to realizing revenues for those services.

We have a long selling cycle for our technology services,
which requires significant investment of capital, human resources and time by both our clients and us. Before committing to use our services, potential clients require us to expend substantial time and resources educating them on the value of our
services and our ability to meet their requirements. Therefore, our selling cycle is subject to many risks and delays over which we have little or no control, including our clients decision to choose alternatives to our services (such as other
providers or in-house resources) and the timing of our clients budget cycles and approval processes. For certain clients, we may begin work and incur substantial costs prior to concluding the contract.

Implementing our services also involves a significant commitment of resources over an extended period of time from both our clients and
us. Our clients may experience delays in obtaining internal approvals or delays associated with technology, thereby further delaying the implementation process. Our current and future clients may not be willing or able to invest the time and
resources necessary to implement our services, and we may fail to close sales with potential clients to which we have devoted significant time and resources, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations,
financial condition and cash flows.

Our profitability will suffer if we are not able to maintain our resource utilization levels and
continue to improve our productivity levels.

Our gross margin and profitability are significantly impacted by our
utilization levels of human resources as well as other resources, such as computers, IT infrastructure and office space, and our ability to increase our productivity levels. We have expanded our operations significantly in recent years through
organic growth and external acquisitions, which has resulted in a significant increase in our headcount and fixed overhead costs. We may face difficulties maintaining high levels of utilization, especially for our newly established or newly acquired
businesses and resources.

The master service agreements with our clients typically do not impose a minimum or maximum
purchase amount and allow our clients to place service orders from time to time at their discretion. Client demand may fall to zero or surge to a level that we can not cost-effectively satisfy. Although we try to use all commercially reasonable
efforts to accurately estimate service orders and resource requirements from our clients, we may overestimate or underestimate, which may result in unexpected cost and strain or redundancy of our human capital and adversely impact our utilization
levels. In addition, some of our professionals are specially trained to work for specific clients or on specific projects and some of our sales and delivery center facilities are dedicated to specific clients or specific projects. Our ability to
continually increase our productivity levels depends significantly on our ability to recruit, train, develop and retain high-performing professionals, staff projects appropriately and optimize our mix of services and delivery methods.

##### Table of Contents

If we experience a slowdown or stoppage of work for any client or on any project for which
we have dedicated professionals or facilities, we may not be able to efficiently reallocate these professionals and facilities to other clients and projects to keep their utilization and productivity levels high. If we are not able to maintain high
resource utilization levels without corresponding cost reductions or price increases, our profitability will suffer.

A significant
portion of our income is generated, and will in the future continue to be generated, on a project basis with a fixed price; we may not be able to accurately estimate costs and determine resource requirements in relation to our projects, which would
reduce our margins and profitability.

A significant portion of our income is generated, and will in the future
continue to be generated, from fees we receive for our projects with a fixed price. Our projects often involve complex technologies, entail the coordination of operations and workforces in multiple locations, utilizing workforces with different
skill sets and competencies and geographically distributed service centers, and must be completed within compressed timeframes and meet client requirements that are subject to change and increasingly stringent. In addition, some of our fixed-price
projects are multi-year projects that require us to undertake significant projections and planning related to resource utilization and costs. If we fail to accurately assess the time and resources required for completing projects and to price our
projects profitably, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected.

Increases in wages for
professionals in China could prevent us from sustaining our competitive advantage and could reduce our profit margins.

Our most significant costs are the salaries and other compensation expenses for our professionals and other employees. Wage costs for
professionals in China are lower than those in more developed countries and India. However, because of rapid economic growth, increased productivity levels, and increased competition for skilled employees in China, wages for highly skilled employees
in China, in particular middle- and senior-level managers, are increasing at a faster rate than in the past. We may need to increase the levels of employee compensation more rapidly than in the past to remain competitive in attracting and retaining
the quality and number of employees that our business requires. Increases in the wages and other compensation we pay our employees in China could reduce our competitive advantage unless we are able to increase the efficiency and productivity of our
professionals as well as the prices we can charge for our services. In addition, any appreciation in the value of the Renminbi relative to U.S. dollar and other foreign currencies will cause an increase in the relative wage levels in China, which
could further reduce our competitive advantage and adversely impact our profit margin. For more information relating to the impact of fluctuation in the value of the Renminbi to our business, please see Item 3.D. Key InformationRisk
FactorsRisks Related to Our Business and IndustryFluctuation in the value of the Renminbi and other currencies may have a material adverse effect on the value of your investment.

Our business operations and financial condition could be adversely affected if we cease to enjoy, or breach the restrictions imposed for, the
financial incentives and subsidies provided by certain PRC government agencies.

We have in the past received financial
incentives and subsidies granted by various PRC government authorities in support of our business. Our net income (loss) for 2008, 2009 and 2010 was $(3,000), $9.0 million and $(3.6 million), respectively. In 2008, 2009 and 2010, we recognized
government subsidies as a reduction to cost of revenue and expenses, primarily cost of revenues, of $1.7 million, $2.1 million and $7.7 million, respectively, and recognized government subsidies as other income of $0.9 million, $3.0 million and $3.3
million, respectively. However, we cannot assure you of the continued availability of such financial incentives and subsidies in the future. The discontinuation of these financial incentives and subsidies could adversely affect our financial
condition and results of operations. In addition, future financial incentives, grants and subsidies may impose certain requirements and restrictions on our business operations. These financial incentives, grants and subsidies, for example, might
impose development time and local use requirements for certain projects funded by a government incentive, grant or subsidy, which can potentially limit the manner that we operate and expand our business.

We expect to rely on a recently formed, non-exclusive arrangement with an independent third party to help train new recruits for our company, and
if this arrangement does not yield the expected benefits, our ability to attract, train and retain skilled personnel would suffer, which could adversely affect our ability to maintain and expand our business.

Our ability to maintain and renew existing client engagements and obtain new business will depend, in large part, on our ability to
recruit, train, develop and retain skilled personnel that enable us to keep pace with growing demands for IT services, evolving industry standards and changing client preferences. To better source well-trained professionals for our business, we
helped establish and fund in cooperation with the Wuxi City government the iCarnegie-iSoftStone training institute, which uses training materials licensed from iCarnegie Inc. to train college students and others in the Yangtze River Delta region. We
expect this school to be an important channel to source and train our future professionals. However, this school may not be able to yield the expected benefits. The school opened in September 2009, and our first class of graduates was certified in
June 2010. Therefore, we have very limited experience with the project, and we are unable to accurately ascertain how successful it may be or how qualified the graduates will be.

##### Table of Contents

In addition, our relationship with iCarnegie Inc. is not exclusive, and iCarnegie Inc. can
terminate its license arrangement with us in the event of a material breach of contract by us and such breach is not cured within 30 days after iCarnegie Inc. gives us notice. If the iCarnegie-iSoftStone training institute does not succeed in
producing well-trained professionals who are qualified and willing to join our company, our ability to recruit, train, develop and retain skilled personnel would suffer, which could adversely affect our ability to maintain and expand our business.

Our subcontracting practices may expose us to technical uncertainties, potential liabilities and reputational harm.

In order to meet our personnel needs, increase workforce flexibility, and improve pricing competitiveness, we subcontract portions of
certain projects to third parties. Despite certain advantages of subcontracting, such arrangements also give rise to a number of risks.

Although we try to source competent and credible third parties as our subcontractors, they may not be able to deliver the level of service that our clients expect us to deliver. Furthermore, we enter into
confidentiality agreements with our subcontractors, but we cannot guarantee that they will not breach the confidentiality of our clients and misappropriate our or our clients proprietary information and technology in the course of providing
service. We, as the party to the contract with the client, are directly responsible for the losses our subcontractors cause our clients. Under the subcontracting agreements we enter, our subcontractors promise to indemnify us for damages caused by
their breach, but we may be unable to collect under these agreements. Moreover, their breaches may damage our reputation and adversely affect our ability to acquire new business in the future.

In some limited cases and despite internal restrictions designed to prevent these actions, we may have subcontracted certain contractual
obligations to third parties without first obtaining our clients prior written consent under the related client contracts. Although we have not been subject to adverse claims by our clients for these actions, we cannot assure you that these
actions would not result in improper disclosure of client information, or result in client dissatisfaction or client loss.

The
international nature of our business exposes us to risks that could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

We conduct our business throughout the world in multiple locations. Our corporate structure also spans multiple jurisdictions, with our parent holding company incorporated in the Cayman Islands and
intermediate and operating subsidiaries incorporated in China, Hong Kong, the United States, Japan and Korea. As a result, we are exposed to risks typically associated with conducting business internationally, many of which are beyond our control.
These risks include:



| |  |  | significant currency fluctuations between the Renminbi and the U.S. dollar and other currencies in which we transact business;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | legal uncertainty owing to the overlap and inconsistencies of different legal regimes, problems in asserting contractual or other rights across
international borders and the burden and expense of complying with the laws and regulations of various jurisdictions;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | potentially adverse tax consequences, such as scrutiny of transfer pricing arrangements by authorities in the countries in which we operate;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | current and future tariffs and other trade barriers, including restrictions on technology and data transfers;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | unexpected changes in regulatory requirements;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------



| |  |  | natural disasters, such as the March 2011 earthquake and tsunami in Japan; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | terrorist attacks and other acts of violence or war.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------

The occurrence of any of these events could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

Our net revenues and results of operations are affected by seasonal trends.

Our business is affected by seasonal trends. In particular, our net revenues are typically progressively higher in the second, third and fourth quarters of each year compared to the first quarter of each
year due to seasonal trends, such as: (i) a general slowdown in business activities and a reduced number of working days for our professionals during the first quarter of each year as a result of the Chinese New Year holiday period, and
(ii) our customers in general tend to spend their IT budgets in the second half of the year and in particular the fourth quarter. Other factors that may cause our quarterly operating results to fluctuate include, among others, changes in
general economic conditions in China and the impact of unforeseen events. We believe that our net revenues will continue to be affected in the future by seasonal trends. As a result, you may not be able to rely on period to period comparisons of our
operating results as an indication of our future performance, and we believe it is more meaningful to evaluate our business on an annual basis.

We may be forced to reduce the prices of our services due to increased competition and reduced
bargaining power with our clients, which could lead to reduced revenues and profitability.

The services outsourcing
industry in China is developing rapidly and related technology trends are constantly evolving. This results in the frequent introduction of new services and significant price competition from our competitors. We may be unable to offset the effect of
declining average sales prices through increased sales volumes and/or reductions in our costs. Furthermore, we may be forced to reduce the prices of our services in response to offerings made by our competitors. Finally, we may not have the same
level of bargaining power we have enjoyed in the past when it comes to negotiating for the prices of our services.

Our ability to
expand our business, procure new contracts, enter into beneficial business arrangements or leverage our skills and knowledge may be affected by non-competition clauses in our agreements with existing clients.

Certain of our existing client contracts have non-competition clauses, which restrict us from providing services to customers of our
existing clients. Many of our client contracts contain clauses that restrict our employees working for a particular client from providing services to the competitors of those clients, and/or in similar assignments to third parties even if they are
not competitors of those clients. Our contracts with some of our clients provide that, during the term of the contract and for up to a 12-month period thereafter and under specified circumstances, we may not accept any assignments from, or render
services to, those clients customers. These restrictions may hamper our ability to compete for and provide services to other clients in a specific industry or market in which we have expertise and may adversely affect our revenues and future
profitability.

Under certain contracts, we are prohibited from using any skills and techniques used for a certain client in
other projects. Such clauses may restrict our ability to develop other clients in a commercially desirable way and to extract the maximum value from the skills and knowledge we have accumulated while providing service.

If we cause disruptions to our clients businesses or provide inadequate service, our clients may have claims for substantial damages against
us, and as a result our profits may be substantially reduced.

If our professionals make errors in the course of
delivering services to our clients or fail to consistently meet service requirements of a client, these errors or failures could disrupt the clients business, which could result in a reduction in our net revenues or a claim for substantial
damages against us. In addition, a failure or inability to meet a contractual requirement could seriously damage our reputation and affect our ability to attract new business.

The services we provide are often critical to our clients businesses. Certain of our client contracts require us to comply with security obligations including maintaining network security and
back-up data, ensuring our network is virus-free, maintaining business continuity planning procedures, and verifying the integrity of employees that work with our clients by conducting background checks. Any failure in a clients system or
breach of security relating to the services we provide to the client could damage our reputation or result in a claim for substantial damages against us. Any significant failure of our equipment or systems, or any major disruption to basic
infrastructure like power and telecommunications in the locations in which we operate, could impede our ability to provide services to our clients, have a negative impact on our reputation, cause us to lose clients, reduce our revenues and harm our
business.

Under our contracts with our clients, our liability for breach of our obligations is in some cases limited to a
certain percentage of contract price. Such limitations may be unenforceable or otherwise may not protect us from liability for damages. In addition, certain liabilities, such as claims of third parties for which we may be required to indemnify our
clients, are generally not limited under our contracts. We currently do not have commercial general or public liability insurance. The successful assertion of one or more large claims against us could have a material adverse effect on our business,
reputation, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. Even if such assertions against us are unsuccessful, we may incur reputational harm and substantial legal fees.

We may be liable to our clients for damages caused by unauthorized disclosure of sensitive and confidential information, whether through our employees or otherwise.

We are typically required to manage, utilize and store sensitive or confidential client data in connection with the services we provide.
Under the terms of our client contracts, we are required to keep such information strictly confidential. We use network security technologies, surveillance equipment and other methods to protect sensitive and confidential client data. We also
require our employees and subcontractors to enter into confidentiality agreements to limit access to and distribution of our clients sensitive and confidential information as well as our own trade secrets. We can give no assurance that the
steps taken by us in this regard will be adequate to protect our clients confidential information. If our clients proprietary rights are misappropriated by our employees or our subcontractors or their employees, in violation of any
applicable confidentiality agreements or otherwise, our clients may consider us liable for those acts and seek damages and compensation from us. Any such acts could cause us to lose existing and future business and damage our reputation in the
market. In addition, we currently do not have any insurance coverage for mismanagement or misappropriation of such information by our subcontractors or employees. Any litigation with respect to unauthorized disclosure of sensitive and confidential
information might result in substantial costs and diversion of resources and management attention.

We may not be able to prevent others from unauthorized use of intellectual property of our clients,
which could harm our business and competitive position.

We rely on software licenses from our clients with respect to
certain projects. To protect proprietary information and other intellectual property of our clients, we require our employees, subcontractors, consultants, advisors and collaborators to enter into confidentiality agreements with us. These agreements
may not provide effective protection for trade secrets, know-how or other proprietary information in the event of any unauthorized use, misappropriation or disclosure of such trade secrets, know-how or other proprietary information. Implementation
of intellectual property-related laws in China has historically been lacking, primarily because of ambiguities in the PRC laws and difficulties in enforcement. Accordingly, protection of intellectual property rights and confidentiality in China may
not be as effective as that in the United States or other developed countries. Policing unauthorized use of proprietary technology is difficult and expensive. The steps we have taken may be inadequate to prevent the misappropriation of proprietary
technology of our clients. Reverse engineering, unauthorized copying or other misappropriation of proprietary technologies of our clients could enable third parties to benefit from our or our clients technologies without paying us and our
clients for doing so, and our clients may hold us liable for that act and seek damages and compensation from us, which could harm our business and competitive position.

We may not be able to prevent others from unauthorized use of our intellectual property, which could cause a loss of clients, reduce our revenues and harm our competitive position.

We rely on a combination of patent, copyright, trademark, software registration, anti-unfair competition and trade
secret laws, as well as confidentiality agreements and other methods to protect our intellectual property rights. As of December 31, 2010, we had one trademark registration, two patent applications, eight trademark applications and 91 software
copyright registrations in China. A patent filing may not result in an issued patent and an issued patent may not sufficiently protect our intellectual property rights. Furthermore, our current lack of patent protection may prevent us from being
able to stop any unauthorized use of our software or other intellectual property. To protect our trade secrets and other proprietary information, employees, clients, subcontractors, consultants, advisors and collaborators are required to enter into
confidentiality agreements. These agreements might not provide effective protection for the trade secrets, know-how or other proprietary information in the event of any unauthorized use, misappropriation or disclosure of such trade secrets, know-how
or other proprietary information. Implementation of intellectual property-related laws in China has historically been lacking, primarily because of ambiguities in the PRC laws and difficulties in enforcement. Accordingly, intellectual property
rights and confidentiality protections in China may not be as effective as those in the United States or other developed countries, and infringement of intellectual property rights continues to pose a serious risk of doing business in China.
Policing unauthorized use of proprietary technology is difficult and expensive. The steps we have taken may be inadequate to prevent the misappropriation of our proprietary technology. Reverse engineering, unauthorized copying, other
misappropriation, or negligent or accidental leakage of our proprietary technologies could enable third parties to benefit from our technologies without obtaining our consent or paying us for doing so, which could harm our business and competitive
position. Though we are not currently involved in any litigation with respect to intellectual property, we may need to enforce our intellectual property rights through litigation. Litigation relating to our intellectual property may not prove
successful and might result in substantial costs and diversion of resources and management attention.

We may face intellectual property
infringement claims that could be time-consuming and costly to defend. If we fail to defend ourselves against such claims, we may lose significant intellectual property rights and may be unable to continue providing our existing services.

Our success largely depends on our ability to use and develop our technology and services without infringing the
intellectual property rights of third parties, including patents, copyrights, trade secrets and trademarks. We may be subject to litigation involving claims of patent infringement or violation of other intellectual property rights of third parties.
We typically indemnify clients who purchase our services and solutions against potential infringement of intellectual property rights underlying our services and solutions, which subjects us to the risk of indemnification claims. The holders of
patents and other intellectual property rights potentially relevant to our service offerings may make it difficult for us to acquire a license on commercially acceptable terms. Also, we may be unaware of intellectual property registrations or
applications relating to our services that may give rise to potential infringement claims against us. There may also be technologies licensed to and relied on by us that are subject to infringement or other corresponding allegations or claims by
third parties which may damage our ability to rely on such technologies. We are subject to additional risks as a result of our recent and proposed acquisitions and the hiring of new employees who may misappropriate intellectual property from their
former employers. Parties making infringement claims may be able to obtain an injunction to prevent us from delivering our services or using technology involving the allegedly infringing intellectual property. Intellectual property litigation is
expensive and time-consuming and could divert managements attention from our business. A successful infringement claim against us, whether with or without merit, could, among others things, require us to pay substantial damages, develop
non-infringing technology, or re-brand our name or enter into royalty or license agreements that may not be available on acceptable terms, if at all, and cease making, licensing or using products that have infringed a third partys intellectual
property rights. Protracted litigation could also result in existing or potential clients deferring or limiting their purchase or use of our products until resolution of such litigation, or could require us to indemnify our clients against
infringement claims in certain instances. Any intellectual property claim or litigation in this area, whether we ultimately win or lose, could damage our reputation and have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or
financial condition.

In the course of preparing our consolidated financial statements, one material weakness and one
significant deficiency in our internal control over financial reporting were identified. If we are unable to correct this weakness and deficiency, our ability to accurately and timely report our financial results or prevent fraud may be adversely
affected, and investor confidence and the market price of our ADSs may be adversely impacted.

Prior to our initial
public offering, we were a private company with limited accounting personnel and other resources for addressing our internal control over financial reporting. In connection with the preparation and audit of our consolidated financial statements
included in this annual report, we and our independent registered public accounting firm identified one material weakness and one significant deficiency, each as defined in the U.S. Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Standard AU
Section 325, Communications About Control Deficiencies in an Audit of Financial Statements, or AU325, in our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010. As defined in AU325, a material weakness is a
deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the companys annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented
or detected on a timely basis, and a significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by
those responsible for oversight of our financial reporting.

The material weakness identified related to the insufficient
accounting personnel with appropriate U.S. GAAP knowledge. The significant deficiency identified was related to the lack of control over a migration from one information system to an upgraded system. Following the identification of the material
weakness, significant deficiency and other control deficiencies, we have taken measures and plan to continue to take measures to remediate these weakness and deficiencies. However, the implementation of these measures may not fully address the
material weakness, significant deficiency and other control deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting, and we cannot yet conclude that they have been fully remedied. Failure to correct the material weakness, significant
deficiency and other control deficiencies or our failure to discover and address any other control deficiencies could result in inaccuracies in our financial statements and could also impair our ability to comply with applicable financial reporting
requirements and related regulatory filings on a timely basis. Moreover, effective internal control over financial reporting is important to help prevent fraud. Failure to achieve and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting
could result in the loss of investor confidence in the reliability of our financial statements, which in turn could harm our business and negatively impact the market price of our ADSs.

Prior to our initial public offering, neither we nor our independent registered public accounting firm undertook a comprehensive
assessment of our internal control for purposes of identifying and reporting material weaknesses and other control deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting as we and they will be required to do going forward. In light of the
material weakness and other deficiencies that were identified as a result of the limited procedures performed, we believe it is possible that, had we performed a formal assessment of our internal control over financial reporting or had our
independent registered public accounting firm performed an audit of our internal control over financial reporting, additional control deficiencies may have been identified.

Upon the closing of our initial public offering in December 2010, we became subject to reporting obligations under the U.S. securities laws. The SEC, as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley
Act of 2002, or the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, adopted rules requiring public companies to include a management report on the effectiveness of the companys internal control over financial reporting in its annual report. In addition, an independent
registered public accounting firm must issue an attestation report on the effectiveness of the companys internal control over financial reporting. These requirements will first apply to our annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ending
on December 31, 2011. Our management may conclude that our internal control over our financial reporting is not effective. Moreover, even if our management concludes that our internal control over financial reporting is effective, our
independent registered public accounting firm may still issue an adverse report if it is not satisfied with our internal control, or the level at which our controls are documented, designed, operated or reviewed, or if it interprets the relevant
requirements differently from us. The failure to establish and maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting could adversely impact the market price of our ADSs due to a loss of investor confidence in the reliability of our reporting
processes. We will need to incur significant costs and use significant management and other resources in order to comply with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

We may need additional capital and any failure by us to raise additional capital on terms favorable to
us, or at all, could limit our ability to grow our business and develop or enhance our service offerings to respond to market demand or competitive challenges.

We believe that our current cash, cash flow from operations and the proceeds from our initial public offering should be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs for at least the next 12 months. We
may, however, require additional cash resources due to changed business conditions or other future developments, including any investments or acquisitions we may decide to pursue. If these resources are insufficient to satisfy our cash requirements,
we may seek to sell additional equity or debt securities or obtain a credit facility. The sale of additional equity securities could result in dilution to our shareholders. The incurrence of indebtedness would result in increased debt service
obligations and could require us to agree to operating and financing covenants that would restrict our operations. Our ability to obtain additional capital on acceptable terms is subject to a variety of uncertainties, including:



| |  |  | investors perception of, and demand for, securities of technology services outsourcing companies;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | conditions of the U.S. and other capital markets in which we may seek to raise funds;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | our future results of operations and financial condition;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | PRC government regulation of foreign investment in China;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | economic, political and other conditions in China; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | PRC government policies relating to the borrowing and remittance outside China of foreign currency.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In addition, the incurrence of indebtedness by us, other than for working or operating capital purposes, is subject to prior written
consent of the holders of our convertible notes who may or may not grant such consent. Financing may not be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. Any failure by us to raise additional funds on terms favorable to us, or at
all, could limit our ability to grow our business and develop or enhance our product and service offerings to respond to market demand or competitive challenges.

A significant majority of our outstanding ordinary shares is held by a small number of our existing shareholders, and these shareholders may have significantly greater influence on us and our
corporate actions by nature of the size of their shareholdings relative to our public shareholders.

As of April 30,
2011, our founder, chairman and chief executive officer Tianwen Liu and our director and chief operating officer Yong Feng beneficially own approximately 16.5% and 5.6%, respectively, of our outstanding ordinary shares. AsiaVest Opportunities Fund
IV and the Fidelity Entities beneficially own approximately 17.7% and 18.4%, respectively, of our outstanding ordinary shares. These major shareholders will continue to have significant influence in determining the outcome of any corporate
transactions or other matters submitted to our shareholders for approval, including mergers, consolidations and schemes of arrangement, election and removal of directors and other significant corporate actions. They may not act in the best interests
of our minority shareholders. In addition, without the consent of these major shareholders, we could be prevented from entering into transactions that could be beneficial to us. This concentration of ownership may also discourage, delay or prevent a
change in control of our company, which could deprive our shareholders of an opportunity to receive a premium for their shares as part of a sale of our company and might reduce the price of our ADSs. These actions may be taken even if they are
opposed by our other shareholders.

Failure to adhere to regulations that govern our clients businesses could result in breaches
of contracts with our clients. Failure to adhere to the regulations that govern our business could result in our being unable to effectively perform our services.

Our clients business operations are subject to certain rules and regulations in China or elsewhere. Our clients may contractually require that we perform our services in a manner that would enable
them to comply with such rules and regulations. Failure to perform our services in such a manner could result in breaches of contract with our clients and, in some limited circumstances, civil fines and criminal penalties for us. In addition, we are
required under various Chinese laws to obtain and maintain permits and licenses to conduct our business. If we do not maintain our licenses or other qualifications to provide our services, we may not be able to provide services to existing clients
or be able to attract new clients and could lose revenues, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

We may incur losses resulting from business interruptions resulting from occurrence of natural disasters, health epidemics and other outbreaks or events.

Our operational facilities may be damaged in natural disasters such as earthquakes, floods, heavy rains,
sand storms, tsunamis and cyclones, or other events such as fires. Such natural disasters or other events may lead to disruption of information systems and telephone service for sustained periods. Damage or destruction that interrupts our provision
of outsourcing services could damage our relationships with our clients and may cause us to incur substantial additional expenses to repair or replace damaged equipment or facilities. We may also be liable to our clients for disruption in service
resulting from such damage or destruction. Prolonged disruption of our services as a result of natural disasters or other events may also entitle our clients to terminate their contracts with us. We currently do not have insurance against business
interruptions. In March 2011, Japan was struck by a 9.0-magnitude earthquake, which resulted in a tsunami and damaged nuclear power plants, among other negative effects. Although our operations in Japan were not physically damaged by these disasters
and our business has to date not been materially and adversely impacted, these events may in the future have an adverse effect on our operations or those of our clients in the Japan market. In particular, the existing and potential further radiation
release from the damaged nuclear power plants coupled with potential aftershocks from the earthquake may result in additional adverse effects on our operations and those of our clients in the future.

Our business could be adversely affected by the effects of H1N1, or swine flu, avian flu,
severe acute respiratory syndrome, or SARS, or another epidemic or outbreak. Since 2005, there have been reports of avian flu in various parts of China and elsewhere in Asia, including a few confirmed human cases and deaths. As of August 10,
2010, there have been at least 128,000 confirmed cases of swine flu in China, according to a report issued by the PRC Ministry of Health. Any prolonged occurrence of swine flu, avian flu, SARS or other adverse public health developments in China may
have a material adverse effect on our business operations. Our operations may be impacted by a number of health-related factors, including, among other things, quarantines or closures of our facilities, which could severely disrupt our operations,
the sickness or death of our key officers and employees, and a general slowdown in the Chinese economy. Any of these events or other unforeseen consequences of public health problems could adversely affect our business and results of operations.

Fluctuation in the value of the Renminbi and other currencies may have a material adverse effect on the value of your investment.

Our financial statements are expressed in U.S. dollars. However, a majority of our revenues and expenses are
denominated in Renminbi. Our exposure to foreign exchange risk primarily relates to the limited cash denominated in currencies other than the functional currencies of each entity and limited revenue contracts dominated in Japanese Yen in certain PRC
operating entities. We do not believe that we currently have any significant direct foreign exchange risk and have not hedged exposures denominated in foreign currencies or any other derivative financial instruments. However, the value of our ADSs
will be affected by the foreign exchange rate between U.S. dollars and Renminbi because the primary value of our business is effectively denominated in Renminbi, while the ADSs are traded in U.S. dollars.

The value of the Renminbi against the U.S. dollar and other currencies is affected by, among other things, changes in Chinas
political and economic conditions and Chinas foreign exchange policies. The Peoples Bank of China regularly intervenes in the foreign exchange market to limit fluctuations in Renminbi exchange rate and achieve certain exchange rate
targets, and through such intervention kept the U.S. dollar-Renminbi exchange rate relatively stable between 6.8 and 6.9 Renminbi per U.S. dollar for almost two years from July 2008. On June 20, 2010, the Peoples Bank of China announced
that the PRC government would further reform the Renminbi exchange rate regime and increase the flexibility of the exchange rate. It is difficult to predict how this new policy may impact the Renminbi exchange rate.

As we may rely on dividends paid to us by our PRC subsidiaries, any significant revaluation of the Renminbi may have a material adverse
effect on our revenues and financial condition, and the value of any dividends payable on our ADSs in foreign currency terms. For example, to the extent that we need to convert U.S. dollars into Renminbi for our operations, appreciation of the
Renminbi against the U.S. dollar would have an adverse effect on the Renminbi amount we receive from the conversion. Conversely, if we decide to convert our Renminbi into U.S. dollars for the purpose of making payments for dividends on our shares or
ADSs or for other business purposes, appreciation of the U.S. dollar against the Renminbi would have a negative effect on the U.S. dollar amount available to us. Furthermore, appreciation or depreciation in the value of the Renminbi relative to the
U.S. dollar would affect our financial results reported in U.S. dollar terms without giving effect to any underlying change in our business or results of operations.

We incurred a net foreign exchange gain of $0.2 million, a net foreign exchange loss of $0.2 million and a net foreign exchange gain of $0.4 million in 2008, 2009 and 2010, respectively. We cannot predict
the impact of future exchange rate fluctuations on our results of operations and may incur net foreign exchange losses in the future. In addition, our foreign currency exchange losses may be magnified by PRC exchange control regulations that
restrict our ability to convert Renminbi into foreign currencies.

Legislation in certain countries in which we have clients,
particularly the United States, Japan and various European countries, may restrict companies in those countries from outsourcing work to us.

IT offshore outsourcing is a politically sensitive issue in the United States, Europe and Japan. For example, many organizations and public figures in the United States and Europe have publicly expressed
concern about a perceived association between offshore outsourcing providers and the loss of jobs in their home countries. A number of U.S. states have passed legislation that restricts state government entities from outsourcing certain work to
offshore service providers. Other U.S. federal and state legislation has been proposed that, if enacted, would provide tax disincentives for offshore outsourcing or require disclosure of jobs outsourced abroad. Similar legislation could be in
enacted in Europe, Japan and other countries in which we have clients. Any expansion of existing laws or the enactment of new legislation restricting or discouraging offshore outsourcing by companies in the United States, Europe, Japan or other
countries in which we have clients could adversely impact our business operations and financial results. In addition, from time to time there has been publicity about negative experiences associated with offshore outsourcing, such as theft and
misappropriation of sensitive client data. As a result, current or prospective clients may elect to perform such services themselves or may be discouraged from transferring these services from onshore to offshore providers. Any slowdown or reversal
of existing industry trends towards offshore outsourcing in response to political pressure or negative publicity would harm our ability to compete effectively with competitors that operate out of onshore facilities and adversely affect our business
and financial results.

Restrictions on immigration may affect our ability to compete for and provide services to clients in
the United States or other countries, which could hamper our growth and cause our revenues to decline.

The vast
majority of our employees are Chinese nationals. Some of our projects require a portion of the work to be undertaken at our clients facilities which are sometimes located outside China. The ability of our professionals to work in the United
States, Europe, Japan, Korea and other countries outside China depends on their ability to obtain the necessary visas and work permits. Historically, the process for obtaining visas for PRC nationals to certain countries, including the United States
and Japan, has been lengthy and cumbersome. We have in the past experienced delays and rejections when applying for business visas to the United States for some of our personnel. Immigration laws in the United States and in other countries are
subject to legislative change, as well as to variations in standards of application and enforcement due to political forces and economic conditions. Particularly given the recent global economic slowdown, it is possible that there could be a change
in the existing laws or the enactment of new legislation imposing restrictions on the deployment of work visa holders at client locations, which may adversely impact our ability to do business in the jurisdictions in which we have clients. However,
it is generally difficult to predict the political and economic events that could affect immigration laws, or the restrictive impact they could have on obtaining or maintaining business visas for our employees. Our reliance on visas for a number of
employees makes us vulnerable to such changes and variations as it affects our ability to staff projects with professionals who are not citizens of the country where the work is to be performed. As a result, we may not be able to obtain a sufficient
number of visas for our employees or we may encounter delays or additional costs in obtaining or maintaining such visas in which case we may not be able to provide services to our clients on a timely and cost-effective basis or manage our sales and
delivery centers as efficiently as we otherwise could, any of which could adversely affect our business and results of operations.

Disruptions in telecommunications or significant failure in our IT systems could harm our service model, which could result in a reduction of our
revenue.

A significant element of our business strategy is to continue to leverage and expand our sales and delivery
centers strategically located in China. We believe that the use of a strategically located network of sales and delivery centers will provide us with cost advantages, the ability to attract highly skilled personnel in various regions of the country
and the world, and the ability to service clients on a regional and global basis. Part of our service model is to maintain active voice and data communications, financial control, accounting, customer service and other data processing systems
between our main offices in Beijing, our clients offices, and our other deliveries centers and support facilities. Our business activities may be materially disrupted in the event of a partial or complete failure of any of these IT or
communication systems, which could be caused by, among other things, software malfunction, computer virus attacks, conversion errors due to system upgrading, damage from fire, earthquake, power loss, telecommunications failure, unauthorized entry or
other events beyond our control. Loss of all or part of the systems for a period of time could hinder our performance or our ability to complete client projects on time which, in turn, could lead to a reduction of our revenue or otherwise have a
material adverse effect on our business and business reputation. We may also be liable to our clients for breach of contract for interruptions in service.

Our computer networks may be vulnerable to security risks that could disrupt our services and adversely affect our results of operations.

Our computer networks may be vulnerable to unauthorized access, computer hackers, computer viruses and other security problems caused by
unauthorized access to, or improper use of, systems by third parties or employees. A hacker who circumvents security measures could misappropriate proprietary information or cause interruptions or malfunctions in our operations. Although we intend
to continue to implement security measures, computer attacks or disruptions may jeopardize the security of information stored in and transmitted through our computer systems. Actual or perceived concerns that our systems may be vulnerable to such
attacks or disruptions may deter our clients from using our solutions or services. As a result, we may be required to expend significant resources to protect against the threat of these security breaches or to alleviate problems caused by these
breaches.

Data networks are also vulnerable to attacks, unauthorized access and disruptions. For example, in a number of
public networks, hackers have bypassed firewalls and misappropriated confidential information. It is possible that, despite existing safeguards, an employee could misappropriate our clients proprietary information or data, exposing us to a
risk of loss or litigation and possible liability. Losses or liabilities that are incurred as a result of any of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on our business.

Our insurance coverage may be inadequate to protect us against losses.

Although we maintain professional liability insurance and property insurance coverage for certain of our facilities and equipment, we do not have any loss of data or business interruption insurance
coverage for our operations. If any claims for injury are brought against us, or if we experience any business disruption, litigation or natural disaster, we might incur substantial costs and diversion of resources.

We have incurred, and may continue to incur, significant share-based compensation expenses which could
adversely impact our net income.

We have granted certain options under our share incentive plans and entered into
certain other share-based compensation arrangements in the past, as a result of which we have recorded $1.4 million, $2.4 million and $8.5 million as share-based compensation expenses for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2009 and 2010.

U.S. GAAP prescribes how we account for share-based compensation which may have an adverse or negative impact on our results
of operations or the price of our ADSs. U.S. GAAP requires us to recognize share-based compensation as compensation expense in the statement of operations generally based on the fair value of equity awards on the date of the grant, with compensation
expense recognized over the period in which the recipient is required to provide service in exchange for the equity award. The expenses associated with share-based compensation may reduce the attractiveness of issuing share options or restricted
shares, also known as non-vested shares, under our equity incentive plan. However, if we do not grant share options or restricted shares, or reduce the number of share options or restricted shares we grant, we may not be able to attract and retain
key personnel. If we grant more share options or restricted shares or other share-based compensation arrangements to attract and retain key personnel, the expenses associated with share-based compensation may adversely affect our net income.

Risks Related to Doing Business in China

Adverse changes in political, economic and other policies of the Chinese government could have a material adverse effect on the overall economic growth of China, which could materially and adversely
affect the growth of our business and our competitive position.

The majority of our business operations are conducted
in China. Accordingly, our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects are affected significantly by economic, political and legal developments in China. Although the PRC economy has been transitioning from a planned economy
to a more market-oriented economy since the late 1970s, the PRC government continues to exercise significant control over Chinas economic growth through direct allocation of resources, monetary and tax policies, and a host of other government
policies such as those that encourage or restrict investment in certain industries by foreign investors, control the exchange between the Renminbi and foreign currencies, and regulate the growth of the general or specific market. While the Chinese
economy has experienced significant growth in the past 30 years, growth has been uneven, both geographically and among various sectors of the economy. Furthermore, the current global economic crisis is adversely affecting economies throughout
the world. As the PRC economy has become increasingly linked with the global economy, China is affected in various respects by downturns and recessions of major economies around the world. The various economic and policy measures enacted by the PRC
government to forestall economic downturns or bolster Chinas economic growth could materially affect our business. Any adverse change in the economic conditions in China, in policies of the PRC government or in laws and regulations in China
could have a material adverse effect on the overall economic growth of China and market demand for our outsourcing services. Such developments could adversely affect our businesses, lead to reduction in demand for our services and adversely affect
our competitive position.

Uncertainties with respect to the PRC legal system could have a material adverse effect on us.

The PRC legal system is based on written statutes. Prior court decisions may be cited for reference but have limited
precedential value. Since the late 1970s, the PRC government has been building a comprehensive system of laws and regulations governing economic matters in general. The overall effect has been to significantly enhance the protections afforded to
various forms of foreign investments in China. We conduct our business primarily through our subsidiaries established in China. These subsidiaries are generally subject to laws and regulations applicable to foreign investment in China. However,
since these laws and regulations are relatively new and the PRC legal system continues to rapidly evolve, the interpretations of many laws, regulations and rules are not always uniform and enforcement of these laws, regulations and rules involves
uncertainties, which may limit legal protections available to us. In addition, some regulatory requirements issued by certain PRC government authorities may not be consistently applied by other government authorities (including local government
authorities), thus making strict compliance with all regulatory requirements impractical, or in some circumstances impossible. For example, we may have to resort to administrative and court proceedings to enforce the legal protection that we enjoy
either by law or contract. However, since PRC administrative and court authorities have discretion in interpreting and implementing statutory and contractual terms, it may be more difficult to predict the outcome of administrative and court
proceedings and the level of legal protection we enjoy than in more developed legal systems. These uncertainties may impede our ability to enforce the contracts we have entered into with our business partners, clients and suppliers. In addition,
such uncertainties, including any inability to enforce our contracts, together with any development or interpretation of PRC law that is adverse to us, could materially and adversely affect our business and operations. Furthermore, intellectual
property rights and confidentiality protections in China may not be as effective as in the United States or other more developed countries. We cannot predict the effect of future developments in the PRC legal system, including the promulgation of
new laws, changes to existing laws or the interpretation or enforcement thereof, or the preemption of local regulations by national laws. These uncertainties could limit the legal protections available to us and other foreign investors, including
you. In addition, any litigation in China may be protracted and result in substantial costs and diversion of our resources and management attention.

Our failure to obtain the prior approval of the China Securities Regulatory Commission, or the CSRC,
of the listing and trading of our ADSs on the NYSE could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and reputation and the trading price of our ADSs.

On August 8, 2006, six PRC regulatory agencies, including the CSRC, promulgated a regulation that became effective on
September 8, 2006. This regulation, among other things, has provisions that purport to require that an offshore special purpose vehicle, or SPV, formed for listing purposes and controlled directly or indirectly by PRC companies or individuals
obtain the approval of the CSRC prior to the listing and trading of such SPVs securities on an overseas stock exchange. On September 21, 2006, the CSRC published on its official website procedures specifying documents and materials
required to be submitted to it by SPVs seeking CSRC approval of their overseas listings.

We completed the initial listing and
trading of our ADSs on the NYSE on December 14, 2010. We did not seek CSRC approval in connection with our initial public offering. However, the application of this PRC regulation remains unclear, with no consensus currently existing among the
leading PRC law firms regarding the scope and applicability of the CSRC approval requirement.

Our PRC counsel, Han Kun Law
Offices, advised us that because we completed our restructuring for the initial public offering before September 8, 2006, the effective date of the new regulation, and iSoftStone Information Technology (Group) Co., Ltd., or iSoftStone WFOE was
not established through merger or acquisition, it was not necessary for us to submit the application to the CSRC for its approval, and the listing and trading of our ADSs on the NYSE did not require CSRC approval. A copy of Han Kun Law Offices
legal opinion regarding this PRC regulation is filed as an exhibit to our registration statement on Form F-1 in connection with our initial public offering, which is available at the SEC website at www.sec.gov.

If the CSRC or another PRC regulatory agency subsequently determines that CSRC approval was required for the initial public offering, we
may face regulatory actions or other sanctions from the CSRC or other PRC regulatory agencies. These regulatory agencies may impose fines and penalties on our operations in the PRC, limit our operating privileges in the PRC, delay or restrict the
repatriation of the proceeds from our initial public offering into the PRC or take other actions that could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, reputation and prospects, as well as the trading
price of our ADSs.

If the CSRC later requires that we obtain its approval, we may be unable to obtain a waiver of the CSRC
approval requirements, if and when procedures are established to obtain such a waiver. Any uncertainties and negative publicity regarding this CSRC approval requirement could have a material adverse effect on the trading price of our ADSs.

We face uncertainty regarding the PRC tax reporting obligations and consequences for certain indirect transfers of the stock of our
operating company.

Pursuant to the Notice on Strengthening Administration of Enterprise Income Tax for Share Transfers
by Non-PRC Resident Enterprises issued by the PRC State Administration of Taxation on December 10, 2009, or Circular 698, where a foreign investor transfers the equity interests of a PRC resident enterprise indirectly by way of the sale of
equity interests of an overseas holding company, or an Indirect Transfer, and such overseas holding company is located in a tax jurisdiction that: (i) has an effective tax rate less than 12.5% or (ii) does not tax foreign income of its
residents, the foreign investor should report such Indirect Transfer to the competent tax authority of the PRC resident enterprise. The PRC tax authority will examine the true nature of the Indirect Transfer, and if the tax authority considers that
the foreign investor has adopted an abusive arrangement in order to avoid PRC tax, they will disregard the existence of the overseas holding company and re-characterize the Indirect Transfer and as a result, gains derived from such Indirect Transfer
may be subject to PRC withholding tax. In addition, the PRC resident enterprise is supposed to provide necessary assistance to support the enforcement of Circular 698.

At present, the PRC tax authorities will neither confirm nor deny that they would enforce Circular 698, in conjunction with other tax collection and tax withholding rules, to make claims against
our PRC subsidiary as being indirectly liable for unpaid taxes, if any, arising from Indirect Transfers by shareholders who did not obtain their shares in the public offering of our shares.

PRC regulations relating to the establishment of offshore special purpose companies by PRC residents
may subject our PRC resident shareholders to personal liability and limit our ability to acquire PRC companies or to inject capital into our PRC subsidiaries, limit our PRC subsidiaries ability to distribute profits to us, or otherwise
materially and adversely affect us.

The PRC State Administration of Foreign Exchange, or SAFE, issued a public notice
in 2005 known as Circular 75 that requires PRC residents, including both legal persons and natural persons, to register with an appropriate local SAFE branch before establishing or controlling any company outside of China, referred to as an offshore
special purpose company, for the purpose of acquiring any assets of or equity interest in PRC companies and raising funds from overseas. When a PRC resident contributes the assets or equity interests it holds in a PRC company into the offshore
special purpose company, or engages in overseas financing after contributing such assets or equity interests into the offshore special purpose company, such PRC resident must modify its SAFE registration in light of its interest in the offshore
special purpose company and any change thereof. In addition, any PRC resident that is the shareholder of an offshore special purpose company is required to amend its SAFE registration with the local SAFE branch with respect to that offshore special
purpose company in connection with any increase or decrease of capital, transfer of shares, merger, division, equity investment or creation of any security interest over any assets located in China. If these shareholders fail to comply, the PRC
subsidiaries of the offshore special purpose company may be prohibited from distributing their profits and proceeds from any reduction in capital, share transfer or liquidation to their offshore parent company and the offshore parent company may be
restricted in its ability to contribute additional capital into its PRC subsidiaries. Moreover, failure to comply with the above SAFE registration requirements could result in liabilities under PRC laws for evasion of foreign exchange restrictions.

We are committed to complying with the Circular 75 requirements and to ensuring that our shareholders who are PRC citizens or
residents comply with them. We believe that all of our current PRC citizen or resident shareholders and beneficial owners have completed their required registrations with SAFE. However, we may not at all times be fully aware or informed of the
identities of all our beneficial owners who are PRC citizens or residents, and we may not always be able to compel our beneficial owners to comply with the Circular 75 requirements. As a result, we cannot assure you that all of our shareholders or
beneficial owners who are PRC citizens or residents will at all times comply with, or in the future make or obtain any applicable registrations or approvals required by, Circular 75 or other related regulations. Failure by any such shareholders or
beneficial owners to comply with Circular 75 could subject us to fines or legal sanctions, restrict our overseas or cross-border investment activities, limit our PRC subsidiaries ability to make distributions or pay dividends or affect our
ownership structure, which could adversely affect our business and prospects.

In addition, the PRC National Development and
Reform Commission promulgated a rule in 2004 requiring its approval for overseas investment projects made by PRC entities. However, there exist extensive uncertainties as to the interpretation of this rule with respect to its application to a PRC
individuals overseas investment and, in practice, we are not aware of any precedents that a PRC individuals overseas investment has been either approved by the National Development and Reform Commission or challenged by the National
Development and Reform Commission based on the absence of its approval. Our current beneficial owners who are PRC individuals did not apply for the approval of the National Development and Reform Commission for their investment in us. We cannot
predict how and to what extent this will affect our business operations or future strategy.

We may be subject to fines and legal
sanctions imposed by SAFE or other Chinese government authorities if we or our Chinese employees or directors fail to comply with Chinese regulations relating to employee share options or shares granted by offshore special purpose companies or
offshore listed companies to Chinese citizens.

According to regulations and rules issued by the Peoples Bank of
China and SAFE, or the Stock Option Rule, all foreign exchange matters relating to employee stock holding plans, share option plans or similar plans with PRC citizens participation require approval from SAFE or its authorized branch. Chinese
citizens who are granted share options or shares by an offshore listed company are required, through a Chinese agent or Chinese subsidiary of the offshore listed company, to register with SAFE and complete certain other procedures. We are an
offshore listed company and as a result we and our Chinese employees who have been granted share options or shares under our 2008 Share Incentive Plan, 2009 Share Incentive Plan and 2010 Performance Incentive Plan are subject to the Stock Option
Rule. We are in the process of filing with SAFE and undertaking certain other procedures according to the Stock Option Rule. Failure to comply with these regulations may subject us to fines or other legal sanctions imposed by SAFE or other Chinese
government authorities. See Item 4. Information on the Company - Regulation  Regulations on Employee Share Options.

PRC regulation of loans and direct investment by offshore holding companies to PRC entities may delay or prevent us from using the proceeds of
future offerings to make loans or additional capital contributions to our PRC subsidiaries, which could materially and adversely affect our liquidity and our ability to fund and expand our business.

In utilizing the proceeds from any future offerings, as an offshore holding company of our PRC subsidiaries, we may make loans to our PRC
subsidiaries and controlled PRC affiliate, or we may make additional capital contributions to our PRC subsidiaries. Any loans to our PRC subsidiaries or controlled PRC affiliate are subject to PRC regulations and approvals. For example, loans by us
to our PRC subsidiaries in China, each of which is a foreign-invested enterprise, to finance their activities cannot exceed statutory limits and must be registered with SAFE or its local counterpart. Loans by us to our controlled PRC affiliate,
Beijing iSoftStone, which is a domestic PRC entity, must be approved by the relevant government authorities and must also be registered with SAFE or its local counterpart.

We may also decide to finance our PRC subsidiaries through capital contributions. These
capital contributions must be approved by the Ministry of Commerce in China or its local counterpart. We cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain these government registrations or approvals on a timely basis, if at all, with respect to
future loans by us to our PRC subsidiaries or controlled PRC affiliate or capital contributions by us to our subsidiaries or any of their respective subsidiaries. If we fail to receive such registrations or approvals, our ability to use the proceeds
of the public offering and to capitalize our PRC operations may be negatively affected, which could adversely and materially affect our liquidity and our ability to fund and expand our business.

In 2008, SAFE promulgated Circular 142, a notice regulating the conversion by a foreign-invested enterprise of foreign currency into
Renminbi by restricting how the converted Renminbi may be used. Circular 142 requires that Renminbi converted from the foreign currency-denominated capital of a foreign-invested enterprise may only be used for purposes within the business scope
approved by the applicable governmental authority and may not be used for equity investments within the PRC unless specifically provided for otherwise in its business scope. In addition, SAFE strengthened its oversight of the flow and use of
Renminbi funds converted from the foreign currency-denominated capital of a foreign-invested enterprise. The use of such Renminbi may not be changed without approval from SAFE, and may not be used to repay Renminbi loans if the proceeds of such
loans have not yet been used for purposes within the foreign-invested enterprises approved business scope.

We cannot
assure you that we will be able to complete the necessary government registrations or obtain the necessary government approvals on a timely basis, if at all, with respect to future loans by us to our PRC subsidiaries or controlled PRC affiliate or
with respect to future capital contributions by us to our PRC subsidiaries. If we fail to complete such registrations or obtain such approvals, our ability to use the proceeds we receive from the public offering and to capitalize or otherwise fund
our PRC operations may be negatively affected, which could adversely and materially affect our liquidity and our ability to fund and expand our business.

Governmental control of currency conversion may limit our ability to use our revenues effectively and the ability of our PRC subsidiaries to obtain financing.

The PRC government imposes control on the convertibility of the Renminbi into foreign currencies and, in certain cases, the remittance of
currency out of China. We receive a majority of our revenues in Renminbi, which currently is not a freely convertible currency. Restrictions on currency conversion imposed by the PRC government may limit our ability to use revenues generated in
Renminbi to fund our expenditures denominated in foreign currencies or our business activities outside China. Under Chinas existing foreign exchange regulations, Renminbi may be freely converted into foreign currency for payments relating to
current account transactions, which include among other things dividend payments and payments for the import of goods and services, by complying with certain procedural requirements. Our PRC subsidiaries are able to pay dividends in foreign
currencies to us without prior approval from SAFE, by complying with certain procedural requirements. Our PRC subsidiaries may also retain foreign currency in their respective current account bank accounts for use in payment of international current
account transactions. However, we cannot assure you that the PRC government will not take measures in the future to restrict access to foreign currencies for current account transactions.

Conversion of Renminbi into foreign currencies, and of foreign currencies into Renminbi, for payments relating to capital account
transactions, which principally includes investments and loans, generally requires the approval of SAFE and other relevant PRC governmental authorities. Restrictions on the convertibility of the Renminbi for capital account transactions could affect
the ability of our PRC subsidiaries to make investments overseas or to obtain foreign currency through debt or equity financing, including by means of loans or capital contributions from us. In particular, if iSoftStone WFOE borrows foreign currency
from us or other foreign lenders, it must do so within approved limits that satisfy their approval documentation and PRC debt to equity ratio requirements. Further, such loans must be registered with SAFE or its local counterpart. We cannot assure
you that the registration process will not delay or prevent our conversion of Renminbi for use outside of China.

The discontinuation or revocation of the preferential tax treatments and government incentives
available to us could decrease our net income and materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Our PRC subsidiaries are incorporated in the PRC and are governed by PRC income tax laws and regulations. Prior to January 1, 2008, entities established in the PRC were generally subject to a 30%
national and 3% local enterprise income tax rate. Various preferential tax treatments promulgated by national tax authorities were available to foreign-invested enterprises or high or new technology enterprises located in certain high-tech zones of
China. Under the Enterprise Income Tax Law effective on January 1, 2008, the PRC has adopted a uniform enterprise income tax rate of 25% for all PRC enterprises (including foreign-invested enterprises) and revoked the previous tax exemption,
reduction and preferential treatments applicable to foreign-invested enterprises. However, the Enterprise Income Tax Law also permits enterprises to continue to enjoy their existing tax incentives, adjusted by certain transitional phase-out rules,
under which enterprises established before the promulgation date of the Enterprise Income Tax Law that were granted tax holidays under the then effective tax laws or regulations may continue to enjoy their tax holidays until their expiration. The
Enterprise Income Tax Law also introduced a new preferential rate of 15% for high-tech enterprises. iSoftStone WFOE and Guangzhou Ruandong Zhiruan Computer Technology Co., Ltd., or Guangzhou Ruandong Zhiruan, obtained the qualification certificates
of high-tech enterprises under the Enterprise Income Tax Law in 2008 with a valid period of three years from 2008 to 2010. As a result, iSoftStone WFOE and Guangzhou Ruandong Zhiruan are eligible to enjoy a preferential tax rate of 15% as long as
they maintain their qualification as a high-tech enterprise. The continued qualification of the high-tech enterprise status is subject to annual evaluation and a three-year review and renewal by the relevant government authorities in China. In
addition, iSoftStone WFOE, as an enterprise established before the promulgation date of the Enterprise Income Tax Law, is entitled to enjoy its exemption of enterprise income tax in 2008 and 50% tax reduction in 2009, 2010 and 2011. Our local tax
bureau has confirmed that the 50% reduction may be applied to the 15% preferential rate that iSoftStone WFOE enjoys as a qualified high-tech enterprise, notwithstanding a tax circular issued by the State Administration of Taxation that deals with
whether these tax benefits are mutually exclusive. We cannot assure you that the tax authorities will not change their position. As a result of the foregoing preferential tax treatments and its continuous qualification as a high-tech enterprise,
iSoftStone WFOE was exempted from enterprise income tax for 2008 and was subject to enterprise income taxes of 7.5% for the years 2009 to 2010. Guangzhou Ruandong Zhiruan, as a qualified high-tech enterprise, was subject to enterprise income tax at
a rate of 15% from 2008 until its dissolution in September 2010. Other PRC subsidiaries of ours also enjoy a variety of tax benefits. See Item 5.A. Operating and Financial Review and ProspectsOperating ResultsTaxes and
IncentivesChina.

The PRC tax policies, interpretations, and practices regarding the overlap, phase-out, and
transition of preferential treatments are subject to continuous change and uncertainty. As such, we cannot assure you that our PRC subsidiaries will continue to qualify as high-tech enterprise under the new Enterprise Income Tax Law, enjoy
preferential treatments under the phase-out rules, not encounter any challenges regarding past application of such treatments, or that the local tax authorities will not, in the future, change their position and revoke any of our past preferential
tax treatments. The discontinuation of any of our preferential tax treatments could materially increase our tax obligations, and materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

In addition, the PRC government has provided various incentives to companies in the software industry and to certain qualified technology
related transactions in order to encourage developments of the software and technology related industries in China. A number of our PRC subsidiaries currently receive value-added tax, or VAT, refunds and business tax exemptions in additional to the
preferential enterprise income tax treatments as described above. Incentives granted to us by PRC governmental authorities are subject to review and may be adjusted or revoked at any time in the future. The discontinuation or revocation of
incentives currently available to us may materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

We may be
classified as a resident enterprise for PRC enterprise income tax purposes; such classification could result in unfavorable tax consequences to us and our non-PRC shareholders.

The Enterprise Income Tax Law provides that enterprises established outside of China whose de facto management bodies are
located in China are considered PRC tax resident enterprises and will generally be subject to the uniform 25% PRC enterprise income tax rate on their global income. In addition, a tax circular issued by the State Administration of Taxation on
April 22, 2009 regarding the standards used to classify certain Chinese-invested enterprises established outside of China as resident enterprises clarified that dividends and other income paid by such resident enterprises will be considered to
be PRC source income, subject to PRC withholding tax, currently at a rate of 10%, when recognized by non-PRC enterprise shareholders. This recent circular also subjects such resident enterprises to various reporting requirements with the PRC tax
authorities. Under the implementation rules to the Enterprise Income Tax Law, a de facto management body is defined as a body that has material and overall management and control over the manufacturing and business operations, personnel and human
resources, finances and other assets of an enterprise. In addition, the tax circular mentioned above details that certain Chinese-invested enterprises will be classified as resident enterprises if the following are located or resident in China:
senior management personnel and departments that are responsible for daily production, operation and management; financial and personnel decision making bodies; key properties, accounting books, company seal, and minutes of board meetings and
shareholders meetings; and half or more of the senior management or directors having voting rights.

##### Table of Contents

Currently, there are no detailed rules or precedents governing the procedures and specific
criteria for determining de facto management bodies which are applicable to our company or our overseas subsidiary. If our company or any of our overseas subsidiaries is considered a PRC tax resident enterprise for PRC enterprise income tax
purposes, a number of unfavorable PRC tax consequences could follow. First, our company or our overseas subsidiary will be subject to the uniform 25% enterprise income tax rate as to our global income as well as PRC enterprise income tax reporting
obligations. Second, although under the Enterprise Income Tax Law and its implementing rules dividends paid to us from our PRC subsidiaries would qualify as tax-exempted income, we cannot assure you that such dividends will not be subject to a 10%
withholding tax, as the PRC foreign exchange control and tax authorities have not yet issued guidance with respect to the processing of outbound remittances to entities that are treated as resident enterprises for PRC enterprise income tax purposes.
Finally, dividends payable by us to our investors and gain on the sale of our shares may become subject to PRC withholding tax. It is possible that future guidance issued with respect to the new resident enterprise classification could result in a
situation in which a withholding tax of 10% for our non-PRC enterprise investors or a potential withholding tax of 20% for non-PRC individual investors is imposed on dividends we pay to them and with respect to gains derived by such investors from
transferring our shares or ADSs. In addition to the uncertainty in how the new resident enterprise classification could apply, it is also possible that the rules may change in the future, possibly with retroactive effect. If we are required under
the Enterprise Income Tax law to withhold PRC income tax on our dividends payable to our foreign shareholders and ADS holders, or if you are required to pay PRC income tax on the transfer of our shares or ADSs under the circumstances mentioned
above, the value of your investment in our shares or ADSs may be materially and adversely affected. It is unclear whether, if we are considered a PRC resident enterprise, holders of our shares or ADSs would be able to claim the benefit of income tax
treaties or agreements entered into between China and other countries or areas.

We may rely on dividends paid by our subsidiaries for
our cash needs, and any limitation on the ability of our subsidiaries to make payments to us could have a material adverse effect on our ability to conduct our business.

As a holding company, we conduct substantially all of our business through our consolidated subsidiaries incorporated in China. We may
rely on dividends paid by these PRC subsidiaries for our cash needs, including the funds necessary to pay any dividends and other cash distributions to our shareholders, to service any debt we may incur and to pay our operating expenses. The payment
of dividends by entities established in China is subject to limitations. Regulations in China currently permit payment of dividends only out of accumulated profits as determined in accordance with accounting standards and regulations in China. Each
of our PRC subsidiaries is required to set aside at least 10% of its after-tax profit based on PRC accounting standards each year to its general reserves or statutory capital reserve fund until the aggregate amount of such reserves reaches 50% of
its respective registered capital. As a result, our PRC subsidiaries are restricted in their ability to transfer a portion of their net assets to us in the form of dividends. In addition, if any of our PRC subsidiaries incurs debt on its own behalf
in the future, the instruments governing the debt may restrict its ability to pay dividends or make other distributions to us. Any limitations on the ability of our PRC subsidiaries to transfer funds to us could materially and adversely limit our
ability to grow, make investments or acquisitions that could be beneficial to our business, pay dividends and otherwise fund and conduct our business.

Our current employment practices may be restricted under the PRC Labor Contract Law and our labor costs may increase as a result.

The PRC Labor Contract Law and its implementing rules impose requirements concerning contracts entered into between an employer and its
employees and establishes time limits for probationary periods and for how long an employee can be placed in a fixed-term labor contract. Because the Labor Contract Law and its implementing rules have not been in effect very long and because there
is lack of clarity with respect to their implementation and potential penalties and fines, it is uncertain how it will impact our current employment policies and practices. We cannot assure you that our employment policies and practices do not, or
will not, violate the Labor Contract Law or its implementing rules and that we will not be subject to related penalties, fines or legal fees. If we are subject to large penalties or fees related to the Labor Contract Law or its implementing rules,
our business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.

In addition, according
to the Labor Contract Law and its implementing rules, if we intend to enforce the non-compete provision with an employee in a labor contract or non-competition agreement, we have to compensate the employee on a monthly basis during the term of the
restriction period after the termination or ending of the labor contract, which may cause extra expenses to us.

Furthermore,
the Labor Contract Law and its implementation rules require certain terminations to be based upon seniority rather than merit, which significantly affects the cost of reducing workforce for employers. In the event we decide to significantly change
or decrease our workforce in the PRC, the Labor Contract Law could adversely affect our ability to enact such changes in a manner that is most advantageous to our circumstances or in a timely and cost effective manner, thus our results of operations
could be adversely affected.

Risks Related to Our ADSs

The trading prices of our ADSs have been, and are likely to continue to be, volatile, which could result in substantial losses to investors.

Between December 14, 2010 and May 27, 2011, the trading price of our ADSs on the NYSE ranged from $14.45 to $22.63 per ADS, and the
last reported sale price on May 27, 2011 was $15.38 per ADS. The trading prices of our ADSs could fluctuate widely in response to factors beyond our control. Broad market and industry factors may significantly affect the market price and volatility
of our ADSs, regardless of our actual operating performance, including the following:



| |  |  | actual or anticipated fluctuations in our quarterly operating results and changes or revisions of our expected results;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | changes in financial estimates by securities research analysts;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | changes in the economic performance or market valuations of other IT services companies;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | announcements by our competitors of new services, acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures or capital commitments;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | technological breakthroughs in the services outsourcing industry;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | fluctuations of exchange rates between the Renminbi and U.S. dollar or other foreign currencies;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | release or expiry of lock-up or other transfer restrictions on our outstanding ordinary shares or ADSs;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | sales or perceived sales of additional ordinary shares or ADSs; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | general market conditions or other developments affecting us, or our industry or the global economy.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In addition, the performance, and fluctuation in market prices, of other companies with business operations located mainly in China that
have listed their securities in the United States may affect the volatility in the price of and trading volumes of our ADSs. Volatility in global capital markets, such as the recent global financial crisis, could also have an adverse effect on the
market price of our ADSs. Furthermore, the securities market has from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are not related to the operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also
have a material adverse effect on the market price of our ADSs.

In addition to market and industry factors, the price and
trading volume for our ADSs may also be highly volatile for specific business reasons including variations in our revenues, earnings and cash flow, announcements of new services, acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures or capital
commitments, addition or departure of our senior management and other key personnel and potential litigation or administrative investigations. Any of these factors may result in large and sudden changes in the volume and trading price of our ADSs.
In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a companys securities, shareholders have often instituted securities class action litigation against that company. If we were involved in a class action suit or other
securities litigation, it would divert the attention of our senior management, require us to incur significant expense and, whether or not adversely determined, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of
operations and prospects.

The voting rights of holders of our ADSs are limited in several significant ways under the terms of the
deposit agreement.

Except as described in the deposit agreement, holders of our ADSs will not be able to exercise
voting rights attaching to the shares evidenced by our ADSs on an individual basis. Holders of our ADSs will appoint the depositary or its nominee as their representative to exercise the voting rights attaching to the shares represented by the ADSs.
Holders of our ADSs may not receive voting materials in time to instruct the depositary to vote, and it is possible that holders, or persons who hold their ADSs through brokers, dealers or other third parties, will not have the opportunity to
exercise a right to vote. Upon our written request, the depositary will mail to holders a shareholder meeting notice which contains, among other things, a statement as to the manner in which voting instructions may be given. We will make all
reasonable efforts to cause the depositary to extend voting rights to holders in a timely manner, but holders may not receive the voting materials in time to ensure that they can instruct the depositary to vote their ADSs. Furthermore, the
depositary and its agents will not be responsible for any failure to carry out any instructions to vote, for the manner in which any vote is cast or for the effect of any such vote. As a result, holders may not be able to exercise their right to
vote and may lack recourse if their ADSs are not voted as requested. In addition, ADS holders will not be able to call a shareholders meeting.

##### Table of Contents

Holders of our ADSs may not receive distributions on our ordinary shares or any value for them if such
distribution is illegal or if any required government approval cannot be obtained in order to make such distribution available to the holders.

The depositary of our ADSs has agreed to pay to holders the cash dividends or other distributions it or the custodian receives on ordinary shares or other deposited securities underlying our ADSs, after
deducting its fees and expenses. Holders of our ADSs will receive these distributions in proportion to the number of ordinary shares their ADSs represent. However, the depositary is not responsible if it decides that it is unlawful or impractical to
make a distribution available to any holders of ADSs. For example, it would be unlawful to make a distribution to a holder of ADSs if it consists of securities that require registration under the Securities Act but that are not properly registered
or distributed under an applicable exemption from registration. The depositary may also determine that it is not feasible to distribute certain property through the mail. Additionally, the value of certain distributions may be less than the cost of
mailing them. In these cases, the depositary may determine not to distribute such property. We have no obligation to register under U.S. securities laws any ADSs, ordinary shares, rights or other securities received through such distributions. We
also have no obligation to take any other action to permit the distribution of ADSs, ordinary shares, rights or anything else to holders of ADSs. This means that holders of our ADSs may not receive distributions we make on our ordinary shares or any
value for them if it is illegal or impractical for us to make them available to them. These restrictions may cause a material decline in the value of our ADSs.

Holders of our ADSs not be able to participate in rights offerings and may experience dilution of their holdings as a result.

We may from time to time distribute rights to our shareholders, including rights to acquire our securities. Under the deposit agreement
for the ADSs, the depositary will not offer those rights to ADS holders unless both the rights and the underlying securities to be distributed to ADS holders are either registered under the Securities Act, or exempt from registration under the
Securities Act with respect to all holders of ADSs. We are under no obligation to file a registration statement with respect to any such rights or underlying securities or to endeavor to cause such a registration statement to be declared effective.
In addition, we may not be able to take advantage of any exemptions from registration under the Securities Act. Accordingly, holders of our ADSs may be unable to participate in our rights offerings and may experience dilution in their holdings as a
result.

Holders of our ADSs may be subject to limitations on transfer of their ADSs.

ADSs are transferable on the books of the depositary. However, the depositary may close its transfer books at any time or from time to
time when it deems expedient in connection with the performance of its duties. In addition, the depositary may refuse to deliver, transfer or register transfers of ADSs generally when our books or the books of the depositary are closed, or at any
time if we or the depositary deem it advisable to do so because of any requirement of law or of any government or governmental body, or under any provision of the deposit agreement, or for any other reason.

Holders of our ADSs may have difficulty in effecting service of legal process and enforcing court judgments obtained against us or any of our
directors or management.

We are incorporated in the Cayman Islands and conduct substantially all of our operations in
China through our subsidiaries in China. Most of our officers and directors reside outside of the United States and some or all of the assets of those persons are located outside of the United States. It may be difficult or impossible for holders of
our ADSs to bring an action against us or against these individuals in the Cayman Islands or in China in the event that you believe that your rights have been infringed under the securities laws of the United States or otherwise. Even if holders of
our ADSs are successful in bringing an action of this kind in the United States, the respective laws of the Cayman Islands and China may render them unable to enforce a judgment against our assets or the assets of our directors and officers. There
is no statutory recognition in the Cayman Islands of judgments obtained in the United States, although the courts of the Cayman Islands will generally recognize and enforce a non-penal judgment of a foreign court of competent jurisdiction without
retrial on the merits. Our PRC counsel has advised us that the PRC does not have treaties with the United States or many other countries providing for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgment of courts, and therefore PRC courts have
discretion not to enforce judgments of U.S. courts.

We are a Cayman Islands company and, because judicial precedent regarding the
rights of shareholders is more limited under Cayman Islands law than under U.S. law, holders of our ADSs may have less protection of their shareholder rights than they would under U.S. law.

Our corporate affairs are governed by our memorandum and articles of association and by the Companies Law (2010 Revision) and common law
of the Cayman Islands. The rights of shareholders to take legal action against our directors and us, actions by minority shareholders and the fiduciary responsibilities of our directors to us under Cayman Islands law are to a large extent governed
by the common law of the Cayman Islands. The common law of the Cayman Islands is derived in part from comparatively limited judicial precedent in the Cayman Islands as well as from English common law, which has persuasive, but not binding, authority
on a court in the Cayman Islands. The rights of our shareholders and the fiduciary responsibilities of our directors under Cayman Islands law are not as clearly established as they would be under statutes or judicial precedents in the United States.
In particular, the Cayman Islands has a less developed body of securities laws as compared to the United States, and provides significantly less protection to investors. In addition, Cayman Islands companies may not have standing to initiate a
shareholder derivative action before the federal courts of the United States.

##### Table of Contents

As a result of all of the above, our public shareholders may have more difficulty in
protecting their interests through actions against our management, directors or major shareholders than would shareholders of a corporation incorporated in a jurisdiction in the United States.

Anti-takeover provisions in our organizational documents may discourage our acquisition by a third party, which could limit our shareholders
opportunity to sell their shares at a premium.

Our fourth amended and restated memorandum of association and fifth
amended and restated articles of association include provisions that could limit the ability of others to acquire control of us, modify our structure or cause us to engage in change of control transactions, including, among other things, the
following:



| |  |  | provisions that authorize our board of directors, without action by our shareholders, to issue preferred shares and to issue additional ordinary
shares, including ordinary shares represented by ADSs;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | provisions that restrict or limit the ability of our shareholders to replace our directors or increase the size of our board. Our directors are not
subject to a term of office (unless a term is set by our board and approved by our shareholders) and their removal requires approval by a supermajority of at least two-thirds of our shareholders at a shareholders meeting or by at least two-thirds of
our board of directors. The number of director nominees that our shareholders can propose in any one calendar year is limited to, in the case of a shareholders meeting convened by the company, the lesser of that number of directors that are up for
election (which may be none) or 25% of the size of the board, or, in the case of a shareholders meeting properly called by shareholders, 25% of the size of the board. The size of our board is determined by our board of directors; and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | provisions that impose advance notice, minimum shareholding periods and ownership thresholds and other requirements on the ability of our shareholders
to call meetings or to propose special matters for consideration at shareholder meetings.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

These provisions
could have the effect of depriving our shareholders of an opportunity to sell their ADSs at a premium over prevailing market prices by discouraging third parties from seeking to acquire control of us in a tender offer or similar transactions.

We are exempt from certain corporate governance requirements of the NYSE.

We are exempt from certain corporate governance requirements of the NYSE by virtue of being a foreign private issuer. We are required to
provide a brief description of the significant differences between our corporate governance practices and the corporate governance practices required to be followed by U.S. domestic companies under the NYSE rules. The standards applicable to us
are considerably different than the standards applied to U.S. domestic issuers. The significantly different standards applicable to us do not require us to:



| |  |  | have a majority of the board be independent;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------



| |  |  | have a minimum of three members or a person with accounting or related financial management expertise in our audit committee;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | have a compensation committee or a nominating and corporate governance committee;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | provide an annual certification by our chief executive officer that he or she is not aware of any non-compliance with any corporate governance rules of
the NYSE;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | have regularly scheduled executive sessions with only non-management directors;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | have at least one executive session of solely independent directors each year;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | seek shareholder approval for (i) the implementation and material revisions of the terms of share incentive plans, (ii) the issuance of more
than 1% of our outstanding ordinary shares or more than 1% of our outstanding voting power to a related party, (iii) the issuance of more than 20% of our outstanding ordinary shares, and (iv) an issuance that would result in a change of
control;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | adopt and disclose corporate governance guidelines; or
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | adopt and disclose a code of business conduct and ethics for directors, officers and employees.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We do not intend to rely on any of the exemptions provided by the NYSE to foreign private issuers, except that we will not provide an
annual certification by our chief executive officer that he or she is not aware of any non-compliance with any corporate governance rules of the NYSE, and we will not seek shareholder approval for (i) the issuance of more than 1% of our
outstanding ordinary shares or more than 1% of our outstanding voting power to a related party, (ii) the issuance of more than 20% of our outstanding ordinary shares, and (iii) an issuance that would result in a change of control. As a
result, you may not be provided with the benefits of certain corporate governance requirements of the NYSE.

##### Table of Contents

We may be classified as a passive foreign investment company, which could result in adverse U.S.
federal income tax consequences to U.S. holders of our ADSs or ordinary shares.

Depending upon the value of our ADSs
or ordinary shares and the nature of our assets and income over time, we could be classified as a passive foreign investment company, or PFIC, for U.S. federal income tax purposes. We will be classified as a PFIC in any taxable year if either
(a) the average quarterly value of our gross assets that produce passive income or are held for the production of passive income is at least 50% of the average quarterly value of our total gross assets or (b) 75% or more of our gross
income for the taxable year is passive income. According to these technical rules, we would likely become a PFIC for a given taxable year if our market capitalization were to decrease significantly while we hold substantial cash and cash equivalents
in that year.

We believe we were not a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes for our taxable year ended December 31,
2010. Although we intend to conduct our business activities in a manner to reduce the risk of our classification as a PFIC in the future, we currently hold, and expect to continue to hold, a substantial amount of cash and other passive assets, and,
because the value of our assets is likely to be determined in large part by reference to the market prices of our ADSs and ordinary shares, which are likely to fluctuate, there can no assurance that we will not be classified as a PFIC for 2011 or
any future taxable year. If we are treated as a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. investor holds our ADSs or ordinary shares, certain adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences would apply to the U.S. investor. For more information on
the U.S. tax consequences to U.S. holders that would result from our classification as a PFIC, please see Item 10.E. TaxationU.S. Federal Income TaxationPassive Foreign Investment Company.

Compliance with rules and requirements applicable to public companies may cause us to incur increased costs, which may negatively affect our
results of operations.

As a public company, we will incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses that we did
not incur as a private company. In addition, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, as well as rules subsequently implemented by the SEC and NYSE, have required changes in corporate governance practices of public companies. We expect these rules and regulations to
increase our legal, accounting and financial compliance costs and to make certain corporate activities more time-consuming and costly. Complying with these rules and requirements may be especially difficult and costly for us because we may have
difficulty locating sufficient personnel in China with experience and expertise relating to U.S. GAAP and U.S. public company reporting requirements, and such personnel may command high salaries relative to what similarly experienced personnel would
command in the United States. If we cannot employ sufficient personnel to ensure compliance with these rules and regulations, we may need to rely more on outside legal, accounting and financial experts, which may be very costly. In addition, we will
incur additional costs associated with our public company reporting requirements. We cannot predict or estimate the amount of additional costs we may incur or the timing of such costs.

|------- | --------------------------

A. History
and Development of the Company

We commenced operations in October 2001 through Beijing iSoftStone Technologies Ltd., or
Beijing iSoftStone, a limited liability company established in China and majority owned by our founder Tianwen Liu. To enable us to raise equity capital from investors outside of China, in November 2005, we reorganized our corporate structure by
establishing our current Cayman Islands holding company, iSoftStone Holdings Limited, or iSoftStone Holdings, and transferred substantially all the IT services business and related assets and liabilities of Beijing iSoftStone into iSoftStone WFOE, a
wholly owned subsidiary of iSoftStone Holdings, in exchange for issuance of ordinary shares of iSoftStone Holdings to our founder Tianwen Liu and other shareholders of Beijing iSoftStone. Concurrently, because certain businesses cannot be conducted
by foreign invested enterprises, iSoftStone WFOE entered into a series of contractual arrangements with Beijing iSoftStone and its shareholders.

We conduct our business primarily though the following subsidiaries:



| |  |  | iSoftStone WFOE, which is our primary operating entity and hosts our headquarters in Beijing, China. iSoftStone WFOE operates our China-based delivery
platform and holds our China-based subsidiaries, including our three key regional centers: iSoftStone Information Technology Co., Ltd. located in Tianjin, iSoftStone Information System Service Co., Ltd. located in Wuxi, and Guangzhou iSoftStone
Information Technology Co., Ltd. located in Guangzhou.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | iSoftStone Inc., which is our wholly owned subsidiary incorporated in the State of Delaware. iSoftStone Inc. integrates the business of Akona Systems,
Inc., or Akona that we acquired in 2008, and provides a wide range of services to our clients in the United States, especially our key client Microsoft, ranging from consulting, application development to R&D services.

Overview

We are a leading China-based IT services provider, serving both Greater China and Global clients. To date, we have focused on serving clients in four target industry verticals, each with large and growing
demand for IT services and solutions: technology; communications; banking, financial services and insurance, or BFSI; and energy, transportation and public sector. We believe that maintaining a balanced business mix between key industry verticals
across both Greater China and Global clients positions us well to capture greater opportunities in Chinas unique and rapidly evolving market for IT services.

We provide an integrated suite of IT services and solutions, including Consulting & Solutions, IT Services and business process outsourcing, or BPO, services. We believe that our comprehensive
end-to-end service offerings support expansion in scope and scale of client engagements. Through both organic growth and strategic acquisitions, we have proactively invested in developing new service lines to complement our existing suite to better
serve our clients. Our IT Services, Consulting & Solutions and BPO service lines accounted for 64.1%, 33.1% and 2.8% of our net revenues in 2009, and 68.5%, 27.6%, and 3.9% of our net revenues in 2010, respectively.

Our clients primarily include large corporations headquartered in China, the United States, Europe and Japan. In the twelve months ended
December 31, 2010, our clients included 76 Fortune 500 companies, of which 24 were Greater China clients and 52 were Global clients. Net revenues from our Greater China and Global clients accounted for 57.6% and 42.4% of our net revenues in
2009, and 55.9% and 44.1% of our net revenues in 2010, respectively. Revenues from our Greater China clients include all revenues from companies headquartered in Greater China and revenues from Global clients include all revenues from companies
headquartered outside of Greater China, including revenues from the Greater China-based operations for these overseas clients. Our technology, communications, BFSI, and energy, transportation and public sector industry verticals accounted for 40.0%,
32.6%, 14.3% and 10.0% of our net revenues in 2009, and 33.1%, 38.3%, 17.1% and 6.4% of our net revenues in 2010, respectively.

We believe we have built one of the largest sales and service delivery platforms for IT services and solutions in China. We have grown
from six sales and delivery centers as of January 1, 2007 to 19 sales and delivery centers as of the date of this annual report, of which 13 are located in China, spanning tier one cities, such as Beijing, Shanghai and Shenzhen, as well as key
tier two and three cities, such as Chengdu, Dalian, Nanjing, Tianjin, Wuhan and Wuxi. We were early to recognize the benefits of expanding into Chinas tier two and three cities, including more favorable blended labor costs and the ability to
attract and retain required talent in increasing scale. We also have operations in the United States, Europe and Japan that are close to the main offices of key Global clients. By combining onsite/onshore support and consulting with scalable and
lower-cost offsite/offshore services and processing, we are able to meet client demands in a cost-effective manner while retaining significant operational flexibility.

We believe resource management and planning is critically important to supporting our growth, and we are committed to effectively recruiting, training, developing and retaining our human capital. Our
total number of employees has grown from 1,527 employees as of January 1, 2007 to 9,285 employees as of December 31, 2010. In 2008, we established dedicated training centers alongside our sales and delivery centers in Wuxi and Tianjin, and
we have since added a training center in Guangzhou. In 2009, we helped establish and fund a training institute in cooperation with the Wuxi City government, the iCarnegie-iSoftStone training institute, in which we have an equity investment. The
iCarnegie-iSoftStone training institute utilizes the technical curriculum and professional certifications developed and maintained by iCarnegie Inc., an affiliate of Carnegie Mellon University, with annual training capacity of up to 10,000 students.
The iCarnegie-iSoftStone training institute had 22 full-time and 8 part-time tutors as of March 31, 2011 and trained approximately 3,300 students in 2010. In January 2011, we replaced our training center in Wuxi with the iCarnegie-iSoftStone
training institute (which will perform all our training functions in Wuxi going forward). In addition, our Top 300 leadership development program focuses on identifying, training, promoting and relocating, as appropriate, qualified
candidates to meet our middle and senior management needs.

##### Table of Contents

In 2008, 2009 and 2010, our net revenues were $82.5 million, $134.4 million and $197.0
million, respectively, representing a compound annual growth rate, or CAGR of 54.5%. In 2008, 2009 and 2010, our net income (loss) increased from a net loss of $3,000 to net income of $9.0 million, and then decreased to a net loss of $3.6 million,
respectively, primarily due to share-based compensation charges on options granted to directors, employees and consultants and changes in the fair value of the return rate reset features and conversion feature of our convertible notes. Our non-GAAP
net income for 2008, 2009 and 2010, which excludes share-based compensation, amortization of intangible assets from acquisitions, interest expense of convertible notes, changes in fair value of contingent consideration in connection with business
combinations, changes in the fair value of the convertible notes derivatives, changes in fair value of warrants and gain on bargain purchase of a business from our U.S. GAAP net income (loss), were $4.7 million, $13.4 million and $19.6 million,
respectively. For a reconciliation of our non-GAAP net income to our U.S. GAAP net income (loss), see footnote (4) on page 5 of this report.

Consulting & Solutions

We offer a range of Consulting & Solutions services to help our clients identify, evaluate and address their business needs through enhancements to their technology platforms. Our consulting
capabilities range from providing consulting services for an overall engagement to discrete consulting services in conjunction with our other services, such as application development and maintenance, infrastructure and software services and BPO. We
typically market these services to the chief executive officers, chief operating officers and other business executives, as well as chief information officers and their functional IT heads across business units of our clients.

Before beginning a project or set of projects, we work with our clients to identify and evaluate business needs, and help formulate
solutions by leveraging multiple components of our IT Services and BPO service offerings as well as industry expertise and solutions, as appropriate. Our combined onsite/onshore and offsite/offshore delivery model allows us to cost effectively and
efficiently deliver client results around the clock. In planning an overall engagement, we also provide business consulting services such as strategy and business planning, market research and competitive analysis, program management, transformation
and transition planning, business process management and business intelligence.

We utilize our industry expertise, technical
know-how and industry-specific solutions to help our clients improve their technology functionality, business performance and overall competitiveness. This service line also provides unique cross-selling opportunities as we typically provide one or
more additional services, such as project implementation involving application development and/or maintenance of legacy systems, or the development of a client solution that leverages one or more industry-specific software modules to help meet a
specific requirement for business functionality. In providing solutions to clients, we seek to incorporate industry best practices, including features unique to specific industries in China, and generally retain the related intellectual property
rights for any software applications developed as part of our overall solution. To help us more quickly and cost effectively address our clients requirements, we have developed a library of over 50 industry-specific proprietary software
modules, many of which provide the foundation for tailored solutions, which we can deliver effectively and efficiently to address our clients requirements. These modules, which incorporate our proprietary intellectual property, not only
incorporate relevant industry knowledge, best practices and experience but serve as building blocks around which our broader service and solution offerings are often delivered.

Our solutions offerings consist of three layers: a base layer (which serves as the common
solution development platform); a general business modules layer; and an industry product and solutions layer. We have created a development methodology to cover our base layer and general business modules layer. All of our industry product and
solutions are based on this development methodology to ensure the integrity, consistency and completeness of our solutions offerings. To date, our consulting team has developed industry-specific solutions in three principal industry groups:



| |  |  | BFSI: treasury management, cash management, property and casualty insurance core, financial holding company business analysis, trust company core and
banking risk management solutions.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Energy, transportation and public sector: supply chain management, enterprise information portals, business intelligence, business process integration
and management and e-commerce solutions.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Communications: mobile and embedded technology, next generation platforms such as 3G/4G, OSS/BSS, business intelligence functionality and network
security products.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In addition, we have assisted companies in the logistics industry by providing e-port
consulting and solutions, to facilitate a range of services including cargo tracking, online customs clearing, online trading and other core logistics functions, distribution management solutions and warehouse management solutions.

Case StudyPetroChina. PetroChina Finance, the financial services arm of PetroChina, needed to update its financial
management system including development and deployment of applications across regions and the integration of its settlement and accounting systems. Given the large and wide-spread network of PetroChina Group, as well as the frequency and large
number of transactions, it needed to be able to centralize and supervise funds to optimize liquidity and security and allocate resources efficiently. Since beginning work with PetroChina Group in 2001, we have developed several business systems for
PetroChina Finance, including a core financial settlement system, credit management system, foreign exchange management system and online banking system. As its business expanded, with our help, PetroChina also launched a cash management system to
achieve more flexible and efficient cash utilization. The systems also help PetroChina to monitor and manage hundreds of foreign exchange accounts, involving multiple currencies, multiple jurisdictions and multiple banks. This solution has enabled
PetroChina to more effectively grow its business both domestically in China and overseas.

IT Services

We provide integrated IT Services by focusing on understanding our clients business requirements, providing disciplined project
management, and delivering and maintaining applications and managing outsourced IT functions. Our IT Services service line consists primarily of application development and maintenance services, or ADM, R&D services and infrastructure and
software services. We typically market these services to the chief information officers, chief technology officers, departmental IT and R&D heads and/or outsourcing project heads of our clients, ranging across industries.

The following table sets forth the major components of our IT Services net revenues for the periods presented:

Application Development and Maintenance (ADM). ADM involves the architecture, design, development,
testing and maintenance of software applications customized specifically for a particular client or group of clients in a similar industry. We also customize complex software packages, build custom applications for mobile devices and embedded
systems and develop supply chain management and enterprise applications. As part of our ADM services, we may also provide clients with application testing and localization services in order to optimize functionality and reliability of the
applications to ensure business performance and continuity.

Clients also outsource to us maintenance of legacy applications, whereby we perform regular
and ongoing maintenance work. Outsourcing maintenance allows our clients to focus on core development and new technologies while ensuring that the existing systems continue to operate without interruption.

Our professionals work onsite/onshore or offsite/offshore at one of our offices or sales and delivery centers. We work with our clients
to structure our project engagements to provide us flexibility in meeting their needs for resource mix, technology know-how, industry knowledge, project duration and cost. Providing ADM services to our clients, in many cases, leads to follow-on
opportunities to provide additional services to the same client in subsequent engagements.

Case
StudyMicrosoft. To help support Microsofts Online Advertising business growth, we provided IT consulting, project management and ADM services to help build its Yield Analytics Platform. The Yield Analytics Platform is a business
intelligence platform built for the Network Strategy and Monetization Group within the Microsoft Online Advertising business. We were selected as the vendor based on successful track record for similar engagements. Using a team comprised of 30%
U.S.-based and 70% China-based resources, we developed the end-to-end solution delivery process, including requirements analysis, development, testing, deployment and ongoing support. The result was a cost-effective, scalable, enterprise-level
solution to meet Microsofts business needs. As a result of the successful delivery, our team has continued to add functionality to the Yield Analytics Platform, as well as take on additional systems to support the Microsoft Online Advertising
initiatives. Our relationship with Microsoft began in 2006 with ADM services, and since then we have grown our service offerings to Microsoft to include a wide range of services, primarily consulting, application development and R&D services.

R&D Services. We provide outsourced R&D services, addressing both software products and hardware devices with
embedded software applications and systems. Hardware equipped with embedded software includes computers, telecom equipment, mobile handsets and other consumer devices. Our R&D services encompass the entire software development lifecycle,
including requirements analysis, concept generation, product realization, localization, quality assurance, and technology and information transfer to the client.

Case StudyHuawei. Huawei needed a customized system to enable monitoring of video through networks on an integrated
platform. We designed, developed and tested a new system, known as Network Video Surveillance, which is a new platform enabling enterprises to monitor video feeds, as well as collect, transport, edit and store various alarm signals and data, over
broadband networks. Huawei selected us as the provider for this project, utilizing our offsite delivery, based on our long-term relationship and track record for high quality, cost-effective delivery. The results of our work for Huaweis
Network Video Surveillance system were optimized processes and operational efficiencies, as well as reduced research and development costs.

Infrastructure and Software Services. Our infrastructure and software services typically involve the management of our clients systems from onsite or offsite locations. Our services include
maintenance of third-party packaged software applications provided by vendors such as IBM and SAP, desktop maintenance services, security management services, data center services and system integration services.

Business Process Outsourcing Services

We leverage our experience serving clients in target industry verticals by increasingly providing BPO services. BPO services free clients from day-to-day management of non-core processes which are time
and resource intensive, so they can focus on running and growing their core businesses. By engaging us to operate dedicated, secure facilities supporting their businesses, our clients are able to achieve significant operational efficiencies and cost
savings. At the same time, we provide a high degree of transparency into our effectiveness and quality by utilizing mutually agreed governance arrangements, systematic reporting practices and key performance indicators. We typically market these
services to c-level executives and other business executives, as well as functional operations heads across business units of our clients.

The nature of our BPO engagements allows us to gain deep insight into the unique business attributes of each of our clients. We leverage our Consulting & Solutions services to identify further IT
enhancements for our BPO clients and have begun to provide additional IT Services to a number of such clients as a result. Consequently, we are able to further enhance our industry domain expertise and help our clients leverage technology to improve

Case StudyUBS Investment Bank (UBS). We support the global trading
desks of UBS Investment Bank by providing post-trade operation services in fixed income and equity derivatives from our sales and delivery center in Shanghai, China. In 2007, UBS embarked on a mission to expand its global outsourcing outside India,
and with an established significant business presence in China, it chose China as a key strategic location. UBS chose us to develop a highly customized operation to support UBSs global derivatives trading operations, to help reduce their
dependence on a small number of Indian providers. Meeting the specific security requirements of UBS, we provide specific services including trade support, capture, reconciliation and MIS reporting. In addition to daily trade support activities, we
also conduct research and reconciliation of historical trades booked in numerous UBS trading locations around the world. The activities conducted by us involve a distinct number of transactions and require significant analytical skills. Our team
members supporting UBS are functional in English, Japanese and Chinese, and in many cases have had multiple years of finance industry experience prior to joining our highly specialized team. As the operation has grown to maturity, our team has
worked closely with UBS to develop and monitor a series of key performance indicators and tools to automatically track daily performance data and enable ongoing performance reviews, which have been subsequently adopted for use within UBS business
units.

Our Delivery Platform

We believe we have built one of the largest sales and service delivery platforms for IT services and solutions in China, growing from six sales and delivery centers as of January 1, 2007 to 19 sales
and delivery centers as of the date of this annual report, of which 13 are located in China, spanning tier one cities, such as Beijing, Shanghai and Shenzhen, as well as key tier two and three cities, such as Chengdu, Dalian, Nanjing, Tianjin, Wuhan
and Wuxi. In November 2010, we opened a new facility for our sales and delivery center in Wuxi. We will initially occupy approximately 10,000 square meters at this facility. We are in discussions to significantly expand our presence in Wuxi and
are evaluating whether to lease or purchase the expanded facilities. We were early to recognize the cost benefits of expanding into Chinas tier two and three cities, including more favorable blended labor costs and the ability to attract and
retain required talent in increasing scale: by 2006, for example, we had established sales and delivery centers in Dalian and Wuhan. We also have operations in the United States, Europe and Japan that are close to the main offices of key Global
clients. By combining onsite/onshore support and consulting with scalable and lower-cost offsite/offshore services and processing, we are able to meet client demands in a cost-effective manner while retaining significant operational flexibility.

Our integrated global delivery platform allows us to deliver our services through a blend of onsite/onshore and
offsite/offshore delivery methods:

Onsite/Onshore. We can dispatch a team of professionals to clients sites to
engage with them in person, manage a project, and more closely address their needs. We have personnel stationed in China, the United States, Europe and Japan that regularly travel to clients sites and address their needs onsite/onshore, and
from time to time we rotate professionals internationally as needed. Onsite/onshore delivery is best suited for clients wishing to have greater control or influence the management of their own projects but needing additional technology expertise, as
well as to facilitate knowledge transfer and project management.

Offsite/Offshore. We have a dedicated pool of
professionals in China that form a virtual extension of our onsite/onshore project team or a clients own development team or operations, wherever the client may be located, in order to satisfy client needs on various tasks that take advantage
of round-the-clock turn around times and lower delivery costs in China. Clients also tend to have more technically sophisticated work and large-scale projects carried out using a mix of onsite/onshore and offsite/offshore resources due to the large
pool of highly skilled talent located in China. This allows our clients to reduce costs while maintaining consistent levels of quality and resources.

We tailor the composition of our teams to the specific needs of each client. Once the initial phases of an engagement have been completed, we generally utilize a greater portion of China-based resources
over the remainder of the engagement, which allows us to better leverage our substantial base of offshore resources to maximize the cost-effectiveness of our services.

Our Clients

Our clients primarily include large corporations headquartered
in China, the United States, Europe and Japan. We have built our key client relationships over many years. We have served our top ten clients by net revenues in 2009 and in 2010 (excluding one-time engagements) an average of 3.8 and 3.8 years,
respectively. We have been able to grow with our clients by increasingly expanding the scope and size of our engagements. The net revenues we have derived from our top ten clients has grown from $41.0 million in 2008 to $107.0 million in 2010,
representing a CAGR of 61.5% for the same period.

We have successfully established strong client relationships with both Greater China and Global clients
within our primary industry verticals: for example, our key relationships include IBM, Microsoft and Sharp in technology, Alcatel-Lucent, AT&T and Huawei in communications, and Bank of China, China Life and UBS in BFSI, in each case as measured
by revenue contribution in 2010.

Our technology, communications, BFSI and energy, transportation and public sector verticals
accounted for, in the aggregate by client industry, 33.1%, 38.3%, 17.1% and 6.4%, respectively, of our net revenues in 2010. The following table sets forth our net revenues by client industry for the periods presented:

We have derived, and believe that in the foreseeable future we will continue to derive, a significant
portion of our revenues from a small number of major clients. In 2008, Microsoft contributed more than 10% of our net revenues; and in 2009 and 2010, Huawei and Microsoft each contributed more than 10% of our net revenues, together accounting for
34.4% and 37.3% of our total net revenues in each period, respectively. In the aggregate, our top ten clients accounted for 49.7%, 56.7% and 54.3% of our net revenues in 2008, 2009 and 2010, respectively. See Item 3.D. Key
InformationRisk FactorsRisks Related to Our Business and IndustryWe generate a significant portion of our revenues from a small number of major clients and any loss of business from these clients could reduce our revenues and
significantly harm our business.

Human Capital

Our ability to rapidly recruit, train, develop and retain employees is critical to the success of our business. We are committed to being a highly regarded employer within our industry in China and we
have dedicated executives focused solely on human capital and leadership development. We believe our employees deliver services on par with widely accepted quality standards in the global IT outsourcing industry. We had 4,205, 7,676, and 9,285
employees as of December 31, 2008, 2009 and 2010 respectively.

Recruiting and Retention. We have built our talent pool by recruiting students from
leading universities in China and hiring highly qualified project leaders and middle-level managers from the market. We are committed to maintaining stringent recruitment standards to continue to hire highly qualified candidates, minimize attrition
and increase the chances for the development of long-term careers for our employees. We offer competitive remuneration and benefits, a challenging work environment, ongoing skill development initiatives, and attractive career advancement
opportunities. We continually assess and refine our selection process based on performance tracking of past recruits. We also maintain a database of experienced potential lateral hires from which we have recruited a large number of middle to senior
level staff over the years. We have experienced what we believe to be relatively low attrition rates of 17.7%, 12.8% and 19.8% in 2008, 2009 and 2010, respectively.

Training and Development. We have training, continuing education and career development programs designed to ensure our technology and managerial personnel enhance their skill-sets in alignment
with their respective roles. We have developed and promoted significant numbers of middle to senior level technical and management personnel from within our company. We continually review our competency model, which is based on the core values of
our company culture, to determine the needs of capability development for technology and managerial personnel, while providing cross-functional assignments and exposure to internal strategic initiatives to prepare them for their next job role. As
part of our systematic work force management practices, we conduct quarterly reviews and terminate employees that do not meet the quality levels required by our development programs and ultimately our clients.

We provide ongoing training for both new college graduates and experienced staff, including technical training and certification
coursework, as well as language and management training. In 2008, we established dedicated training centers alongside our sales and delivery centers in Wuxi and Tianjin, and we have since added a training center in Guangzhou. We expect to open
another training center in Dalian in 2011. These training centers are supported by a combination of government subsidies, tuition from the students and funds from us. The students gain hands-on experience in these programs, and the top students
often obtain employment with us after graduation.

In 2009, we helped establish and fund a training institute in cooperation
with the Wuxi City government, the iCarnegie-iSoftStone training institute, in which we have an equity investment. The iCarnegie-iSoftStone training institute utilizes the technical curriculum and professional certifications developed and maintained
by iCarnegie Inc., the for-profit education arm of Carnegie Mellon University. The institute conducts certificate programs to train students in IT development, software development and other IT services skills, in English, which enables them to
immediately begin serving clients. It has the capacity to train up to 10,000 students annually. The iCarnegie-iSoftStone training institute had 22 full-time and 8 part-time tutors as of March 31, 2011 and trained approximately 3,300 students in
2010. In January 2011, we replaced our training center in Wuxi with the iCarnegie-iSoftStone training institute (which will perform all our training functions in Wuxi going forward). We believe that the iCarnegie-iSoftStone training institute and
our other training centers will help to create a sustainable and long-term source of high-quality candidates for positions with our company.

We are particularly focused on development of middle management and leadership. Our Top 300 leadership development program is focused on systematically identifying and nurturing the
development of middle and senior management. Using this program, we cultivate talent through formal leadership training, evaluation, development and promotion.

Research and Development

We continuously invest in research and
development to enhance our domain knowledge and develop industry specific solutions to improve our competitiveness. We have established a two-layer research and development organization. At the corporate level, our four iSoftStone R&D
institutes, in Beijing, Tianjin, Wuhan and Wuxi, are exploring new technologies and related applications (such as cloud computing) which can be applied horizontally across our integrated suite of service offerings. At the industry vertical level, we
have several innovation centers with research and development efforts focused on developing solutions to help us more quickly and cost-effectively address our clients requirements. Our research and development team has built a library of over
50 industry-specific proprietary software modules, which incorporate our intellectual property. These modules not only incorporate accumulated industry expertise and best practices, but also serve as building blocks for our broad service and
solution offerings.

Sales and Marketing

Our sales and marketing strategy seeks to increase client awareness of our service offerings, generate new and recurring business from target clients, promote client loyalty and enhance brand recognition.
We promote our services directly through our business development teams and other client-facing personnel. Members of our executive management team are also actively involved in managing key client relationships through regular interaction with our
clients senior management.

Sales and Marketing Organization. We have invested in building a broad
sales force and marketing team. As of December 31, 2010, our business development teams consisted of 380 full-time sales and marketing personnel, including 159 sales managers, each of whom is responsible for a designated sales region, industry
vertical or client account. We group our sales offices by regions in China and globally, and we have sales offices in 13 major cities in China, as well as in Hong Kong, Taipei, the United States and Japan, as of December 31, 2010. We plan to
enhance our sales efforts by recruiting more sales personnel both domestically and overseas. We use salesforce.com as our primary sales management tool, which helps us efficiently manage our sales pipeline and track sales performance.

Strategic Alliances. We frequently enter into strategic alliances to help global
technology companies go to market in China by jointly targeting business opportunities in the domestic China market. Through these alliances our clients gain greater market access for their products and solutions and we gain valuable
industry experience, technology know-how and additional revenue opportunities. Examples of these strategic alliances include our alliance with Sungard where we are assisting in the deployment and implementation of Sungards iWorks solution at
domestic China insurance clients.

Competition

The market for IT services is highly competitive and we expect competition to persist and intensify. We believe that the principal competitive factors in our markets are industry expertise, breadth and
depth of service offerings, quality of the services offered, reputation and track record, marketing and selling skills, scalability of infrastructure and price.

In the IT outsourcing market, we face competition from the following major competitors:



| |  |  | Chinese IT services companies, such as Camelot Information Systems, ChinaSoft International Ltd., HiSoft Technology International Limited, Longtop
Financial Technologies Limited, Neusoft Group Ltd., and VanceInfo Technologies Inc.;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Indian IT services companies, such as Cognizant Technology Solutions Corp., HCL Technologies, Infosys Technologies Ltd., Tata Consultancy Services Ltd.
and Wipro Technologies;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | offshore IT services providers in emerging outsourcing destinations with low wage costs such as Southeast Asia, Latin America and Eastern Europe; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | in-house IT departments of large corporations.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------

To date, we do not typically compete directly with the larger global consulting and outsourcing firms, such as Accenture, Capgemini, Hewlett-Packard and IBM, who are typically engaged in conjunction with
large global projects. However, we may compete with these firms if they seek smaller engagements, particularly in conjunction with a strategy to enter the domestic China market. In addition, the trend towards offshore outsourcing, international
expansion by foreign and domestic competitors and continuing technological changes will result in new and different competitors entering our markets. We believe that our delivery capabilities are competitive with companies such as these, and that
our domestic China market experience and know-how provides us with a competitive advantage in serving our clients.

We believe
that we have a strong competitive position serving Greater China and Global clients, as recognized by various third-party publications. For example:



| |  |  | in 2009 and 2010, we were included as a Top 10 Chinas Leading Service Provider, published by Gartner and IDC;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | in 2010, we were included in the annual Global Outsourcing Top 100, published by the International Association of Outsourcing Professionals ®, or
IAOP ®; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | In 2009, we were included as a Top 10 IT Outsourcing Company, published by ChinaSourcing Alliance.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Intellectual Property and Confidentiality

Protecting our IP rights and the IP rights of our clients is critical to our business. We have invested and will continue to invest in research and development to enhance our domain knowledge and create
industry-specific solutions. As of December 31, 2010, we had registered IP including 91 software copyrights, one trademark and 11 domain names registered in China, one domain name registered in the United States, and one domain name registered
in Japan, and we had applied for two trademarks in the United States related to our iSoftStone logo.

We employ a
multi-layered approach to protect our clients IP, including implementing advanced technology and process-based protection and enforcement practices mandated by recognized security standards. In 2007, we became ISO 27001:2005
certified. Among other security measures, we require our employees and subcontractors to enter into non-disclosure agreements to limit access to and distribution of our clients proprietary and confidential information as well as our own.
These agreements generally provide that any confidential or proprietary information developed by us or on our behalf must be kept confidential. We screen our employees and provide security training. Physical layer security measures include clustered
and multi-level firewalls, intrusion detection mechanisms, vulnerability assessments, antivirus software, access control mechanisms and encryption techniques as required. We also operate our sales and delivery centers according to the security
requirements of our clients, including guards, restricted access to server rooms, segregated networks, closed-circuit TV with recording devices, and other specific client requests.

Technology and Infrastructure

We have invested significantly in building our technology and infrastructure. As part of our technology infrastructure, we have our own
data centers in Beijing, Nanjing, Shenzhen, Tianjin and Wuxi. In addition to supporting our own operations, we also use our data centers to serve our clients with infrastructure services. We expect to continue investing in our own IT infrastructure
and more advanced technologies, such as cloud computing, to support our business growth.

Telecommunications linkage with
client sites and between our various sites in China and overseas is a core component of our global delivery platform. We have designed a high-quality, scalable and secure network architecture that provides client connectivity, sales and delivery
center connectivity and broadband connectivity.

Our clients operate in multiple jurisdictions and have a variety of voice and
data systems. Our in-house solution architecture team has the capability to integrate our clients voice and data networks with our networks, support procedures, security environment and reporting procedures to create a homogeneous environment
for consistent service delivery.

We use SAPs human resources management system and financial management solutions to
optimize our human resource and finance functions.

Quality Assurance

We have invested heavily in our service delivery quality, including project lifecycle management and quality controls. To standardize,
document and make our development process more easily replicable, in 2005 we created iSoftStone Project Development Process, or iPDP, our in-house project management and quality assurance methodology. The increased automation enabled by iPDP also
allows for more cost-effective project delivery. Depending upon the needs of our clients, we can also follow the standard processes requested by them, according to their specific needs. Throughout the development cycle and implementation process,
our quality assurance methodology is embedded into the work we deliver. Through regular reports and communication, our clients have full visibility into the project progress.

We have achieved a wide range of recognition for our quality. We received our CMMi Level 5 certification in 2006, which expired in 2009,
and we are currently in the process of renewing such certification. We became ISO 9001:2008 certified in 2010. We continually refine our software development and project delivery methodologies, tools and techniques, and implement performance metrics
to drive ongoing improvements in our service delivery.

Legal Proceedings

We are subject to legal proceedings, investigations and claims incidental to the conduct of our business from time to time. We are not
currently a party to, nor are we aware of, any legal proceeding, investigation or claim which, in the opinion of our management, is likely to have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

Regulations

This
section sets forth a summary of the most significant rules and regulations that affect our business activities in China or our shareholders rights to receive dividends and other distributions from us.

Regulations Relating to PRC Information Technology Service Industry

According to the Guidelines on Foreign Investment issued by the State Council in 2002 and the Catalog on Foreign Invested Industries (2007
Revision) issued by the National Development and Reform Commission and the Ministry of Commerce, IT services fall into the category of industries in which foreign investment is encouraged. The State Council has promulgated several notices since 2000
to launch favorable policies for IT services, such as preferential tax treatments and credit support.

Under rules and
regulations promulgated by various Chinese government agencies, enterprises that have met specified criteria and are recognized as software enterprises by the relevant government authorities in China are entitled to preferential treatment, including
financing support, preferential tax rates, export incentives, discretion and flexibility in determining employees welfare benefits and remuneration. For example, a recognized software enterprise is entitled to an exemption from enterprise
income tax for its first two profitable years and a 50% reduction of its applicable enterprise income tax rate for the three following years. Software enterprise qualifications are subject to annual examination. Enterprises that fail to meet the
annual examination standards will lose the favorable enterprise income tax treatment. Enterprises exporting software or producing software products that are registered with the relevant government authorities are also entitled to preferential
treatment including governmental financial support, preferential import/export policies and preferential tax rates. iSoftStone WFOE, iSoftStone Information Technology Co., Ltd., iSoftStone Information System Service Co., Ltd. and Beijing iSoftStone
Boxin Technology Co., Ltd. were recognized as software enterprises in April 2006, July 2007, October 2007 and December 2008 respectively and remain so as of the date of this annual report.

Companies in China engaging in systems integration are required to obtain qualification
certificates from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. Companies planning to set up computer information systems may only retain systems integration companies with appropriate qualification certificates. The qualification certificate
is subject to review every two years and is renewable every four years. In 2003, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology promulgated the Amended Appraisal Condition for Qualification Grade of Systems Integration of Computer Information
to elaborate the conditions for appraising each of the four qualification grades of systems integration companies. Companies applying for qualification are graded depending on the scale of the work they undertake. The grades range from Grade 1
(highest) to Grade 4 (lowest) in the scale of the work the respective companies can undertake. Companies with Grade 3 qualification can independently undertake projects at the medium-scale and small-scale enterprise level and undertake projects at
the large-scale enterprise level in cooperation with other entities. Our subsidiary iSoftStone WFOE obtained Grade 3 qualification certificate for systems integration in August 2008 and maintains this grade as of the date of this annual report.

In 2009, the Ministry of Commerce and the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology jointly promulgated a rule aiming
to protect a fair competition environment in the PRC service outsourcing industry. This rule requires that each of the domestic enterprises which provides IT and technological BPO services and each of its shareholders, directors, supervisors,
managers and employees should not violate the service outsourcing contract to disclose, use or allow others to use the confidential information of its client. Such enterprises are also required to establish an information protection system and take
various measures to protect clients confidential information, including causing their employees and third parties who have access to clients confidential information to sign confidentiality agreements and/or non-competition agreements.

Regulations on Intellectual Property Rights

The PRC Copyright Law, as amended, together with various regulations and rules promulgated by the State Council and the National Copyright Administration, protect software copyright in China. These laws
and regulations establish a voluntary registration system for software copyrights administered by the Copyright Protection Center of China. Unlike patent and trademark registration, copyrighted software does not require registration for protection.
Although such registration is not mandatory under PRC law, software copyright owners are encouraged to go through the registration process and registered software may receive better protection. As of December 31, 2010, we had registered 91
software copyrights with the National Copyright Administration.

The PRC Trademark Law, as amended, together with its
implementation rules, protect registered trademarks. The Trademark Office of the State Administration for Industry and Commerce handles trademark registrations and grants a renewable protection term of 10 years to registered trademarks. As of
December 31, 2010, we had registered one trademark with the Trademark Office of the State Administration for Industry and Commerce and have eight trademark applications outstanding.

Regulations on Foreign Currency Exchange

Under the PRC Foreign
Exchange Administrative Regulations and various rules and regulations promulgated by SAFE, the Renminbi is freely convertible under current account transactions, including the distribution of dividends, interest payments, trade and service-related
foreign exchange transactions. For foreign exchange transactions under capital account items, such as making inbound and outbound direct investment, borrowing foreign loans, repatriating investment and investment in securities outside China, prior
approval of or registration with SAFE or its local branches is required.

Foreign-invested enterprises may only buy, sell and
remit foreign currencies at those banks authorized to conduct foreign exchange business after providing valid commercial documents and, in the case of capital account transactions, after obtaining approval from SAFE or its local branches. Capital
investments by foreign-invested enterprises outside of China are also subject to limitations, which include approvals by the Ministry of Commerce, SAFE and the National Development and Reform Commission or their local counterparts.

Regulations on Offshore Parent Holding Companies Direct Investment in and Loans to Their PRC Subsidiaries

An offshore company may make an equity investment in a PRC company, which will transform the PRC company into a subsidiary of the offshore
holding company and a foreign-invested enterprise after the investment. Such equity investment is subject to a series of laws and regulations generally applicable to any foreign-invested enterprise in China. Under these laws and regulations, the
increase of the registered capital of a foreign-invested enterprise is subject to prior approval by the original approval authority of its establishment, which is usually the Ministry of Commerce or its local counterpart. In addition, the increase
of registered capital and the total investment amount must both be registered with the State Administration for Industry and Commerce and SAFE or their local counterparts.

##### Table of Contents

Shareholder loans made by offshore parent holding companies to their PRC subsidiaries are
regarded as foreign debts in China for regulatory purposes and are subject to a number of PRC laws and regulations. Under these laws and regulations, such loans must be registered with SAFE or its local branches. Furthermore, the total amount of
foreign debts that can be borrowed by such PRC subsidiaries, including any shareholder loans, should not exceed the difference between the total investment amount and the registered capital amount of the PRC subsidiaries, both of which are subject
to governmental approvals.

In 2008, SAFE promulgated Circular 142 to regulate the conversion by a foreign-invested enterprise
of foreign currency into Renminbi by restricting how the converted Renminbi may be used. Circular 142 requires that the registered capital of a foreign-invested enterprise converted from foreign currencies and settled in Renminbi may only be used
for purposes within the business scope approved by the applicable governmental authorities and may not be used for equity investments within the PRC unless otherwise specifically provided for. In addition, SAFE strengthened its oversight of the flow
and use of the registered capital of a foreign-invested enterprise converted from foreign currencies and settled in Renminbi. The use of such Renminbi capital may not be changed without SAFE approval, and it may not in any case be used to repay
Renminbi loans if the proceeds of such loans have not been used for purposes within the foreign-invested enterprises approved business scope. Violations of Circular 142 may result in severe penalties, including substantial fines as set forth
in the PRC Foreign Exchange Administrative Regulations.

Regulations on Dividend Distribution

Under applicable PRC laws and regulations, wholly foreign-owned enterprises in China may pay dividends only out of their accumulated
profits, if any, determined in accordance with Chinese accounting standards and regulations. In addition, wholly foreign-owned enterprises in China are required to allocate at least 10% of their accumulated after-tax profits each year, if any, to
fund certain reserve funds until these reserves have reached 50% of the registered capital of the enterprise. These reserves are not distributable as cash dividends. iSoftStone WFOE is restricted from distributing any dividends to us until it has
met these requirements set out in the regulations.

According to the Enterprise Income Tax Law and its implementation rules,
both of which became effective on January 1, 2008, dividends payable by a foreign-invested enterprise to its foreign investors will be subject to a 10% withholding tax if the foreign investors are considered as non-resident enterprises that are
without any establishment or premise of business within China or if the dividends payable to such foreign investors do not have any connection with the establishment or premises of business of the foreign investors within China, to the extent that
the dividends are deemed China-sourced income, unless such foreign investors jurisdiction of incorporation has a tax treaty with the PRC that provides for a different withholding arrangement.

Regulations on Overseas Investment by PRC Residents

In 2005, SAFE issued the Notice on Relevant Issues Concerning Foreign Exchange Administration for PRC Residents to Engage in Financing and Return Investments via Overseas Special Purpose Vehicles, or
Circular 75. Circular 75 requires PRC residents, including both legal persons and natural persons, to register with an appropriate local SAFE branch before establishing or controlling any company outside of China, referred to as an offshore
special purpose company, for the purpose of acquiring any assets of or equity interest in PRC companies and raising fund from overseas. When a PRC resident contributes the assets or equity interests it holds in a PRC company into the offshore
special purpose company, or engages in overseas financing after contributing such assets or equity interests to the offshore special purpose company, such PRC resident must modify its SAFE registration in light of its interest in the offshore
special purpose company and any change thereof. In addition, any PRC resident that is the shareholder of an offshore special purpose company is required to amend its SAFE registration with the local SAFE branch with respect to that offshore special
purpose company in connection with any increase or decrease of capital, transfer of shares, merger, division, long-term equity investment or creation of any security interest. If these shareholders fail to comply, the PRC subsidiaries of the
offshore special purpose company may be prohibited from distributing their profits and proceeds from any reduction in capital, share transfer or liquidation to their offshore parent company and the offshore parent company may be restricted in its
ability to contribute additional capital into its PRC subsidiaries. Moreover, failure to comply with the above SAFE registration requirements could result in liability under PRC laws for evasion of foreign exchange restrictions.

In addition, the National Development and Reform Commission promulgated a rule in 2004 requiring its approval for overseas investment
projects made by PRC entities. However, there exists great uncertainty as to the interpretation of this rule with respect to its application to a PRC individuals overseas investment and, in practice, we are not aware of any precedents that a
PRC individuals overseas investment has been either approved by the National Development and Reform Commission or challenged by the National Development and Reform Commission based on the absence of its approval. See Item 3.D. Key
InformationRisk FactorsRisks Related to Doing Business in ChinaPRC regulations relating to the establishment of offshore special purpose companies by PRC residents may subject our PRC resident shareholders to personal liability and
limit our ability to acquire PRC companies or to inject capital into our PRC subsidiaries, limit our PRC subsidiaries ability to distribute profits to us, or otherwise materially and adversely affect us.

Regulations on Employee Share Options

According to regulations and rules issued by the Peoples Bank of China and SAFE, all foreign exchange matters relating to employee
stock holding plans, share option plans or similar plans of overseas listed companies with PRC citizens participation require approval from SAFE or its local counterpart. Chinese citizens who are granted share options or shares by an overseas
listed company are required to register with SAFE through a Chinese agent and complete certain other procedures. These procedures must be conducted by a PRC agent designated by the subsidiary of such overseas listed company with which the PRC
citizens are affiliated. The PRC agent may be a subsidiary of the overseas listed company, a trade union having legal person status and representing employees of that subsidiary, a trust and investment company or any other financial institution
qualified to act as a custodian of assets. Foreign exchange income received by such participant from the sale of shares or dividends distributed by the overseas listed company must first be remitted into a collective foreign exchange account opened
and managed by the PRC agent prior to any distribution of such income to such participants in a foreign currency or in Renminbi. We and our Chinese employees who have been granted share options or shares are subject to these rules and in the process
of filing with SAFE and undertaking certain other procedures according to these rules.

Regulation of Merger and Acquisitions of
Domestic Enterprises by Foreign Investors

In 2006, six PRC regulatory agencies, including the CSRC, promulgated the
Provisions Regarding Mergers and Acquisitions of Domestic Enterprises by Foreign Investors, or the M&A Rule, to more effectively regulate foreign investment in PRC domestic enterprises. Under the M&A Rule, equity or assets merger and
acquisition of Chinese enterprises by foreign investors will be subject to the approval from the Ministry of Commerce or its competent local branches. The M&A Rule also requires offshore special purpose vehicles formed for the purposes of
overseas listing of equity interests in PRC companies and controlled directly or indirectly by PRC companies or individuals to obtain the approval of the CSRC prior to the listing and trading of the securities of such special purpose vehicles on an
overseas stock exchange.

The interpretation and application of the M&A Rule is currently unclear. However, our PRC
counsel, Han Kun Law Offices, has advised us that based on its understanding of current PRC laws, rules and regulations, the M&A Rule does not require us to obtain prior CSRC approval for the listing and trading of our ADSs on the NYSE, because
our iSoftStone WFOE was established as a foreign-invested enterprise before September 8, 2006, the effective date of the M&A Rule, and iSoftStone WFOE was not established through merger or acquisition. A copy of Han Kun Law Offices legal
opinion regarding the M&A Rule is filed as an exhibit to our registration statement on Form F-1, which is available at the SECs website at www.sec.gov.

See Item 3.D. Key InformationRisk FactorsRisks Related to Doing Business in ChinaOur failure to obtain the prior approval of the China Securities Regulatory Commission, or the
CSRC, of the listing and trading of our ADSs on the NYSE could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and reputation and the trading price of our ADSs.

Regulation on Employment

The PRC Labor Contract Law and its
implementing rules impose requirements concerning contracts entered into between an employer and its employees and establishes time limits for probationary periods and for how long an employee can be placed in a fixed-term labor contract. The Labor
Contract Law and its implementation rules also require certain terminations to be based upon seniority rather than merit, which significantly affects the cost of reducing workforce for employers. In addition, if an employer intends to enforce a
non-compete provision with an employee in a labor contract or non-competition agreement, it has to compensate the employee on a monthly basis during the term of the restriction period after the termination or ending of the labor contract. Employers
in most cases are also required to provide a severance payment to their employees after their employment relationships are terminated, including under the circumstance that a labor contract expires without renewal because the employer refuses to
renew the labor contract or provides less favorable terms for renewal. Because the Labor Contract Law and its implementing rules have not been in effect very long and because there is lack of clarity with respect to their implementation and
potential penalties and fines, it is uncertain how it will impact our current employment policies and practices.

Regulations on PRC
Taxation

For a discussion of applicable PRC tax regulations, see Item 5.A. Operating and Financial Review and
ProspectsOperating Results Taxes and IncentivesChina.

C. Organizational Structure

We are a Cayman Islands holding company and conduct substantially all of our business through 16 operating subsidiaries in China and two operating subsidiaries in the United States. Our corporate
structure reflects common practice for companies with operations in the PRC where separate legal entities are often required or advisable for purposes of obtaining relevant tax and other incentives in such jurisdictions. Our holding-company
structure allows our management and shareholders to take significant corporate actions without having to submit these actions for the approval of the administrative agencies in every country where we have significant operations. Moreover, our choice
of the Cayman Islands as the jurisdiction of incorporation of our ultimate holding company was motivated in part by its relatively well-developed body of corporate law, various tax and other incentives and its wide acceptance among internationally
recognized securities exchanges as a jurisdiction for companies seeking to list securities.

The following diagram illustrates
our current corporate structure and the place of formation and the ownership of our major subsidiaries and affiliated entity as of the date of this annual report. All of our subsidiaries are 100% owned or controlled by us except for Beijing Guodian
Ruantong Technology Co., Ltd., in which we have a 60% equity interest, Beijing iSoftStone Jiewen Information Technology Co., Ltd., in which we have a 67% equity interest, and iHealthStone Co., Ltd., in which we have a 98.3% equity interest.

|ITEM 5. | OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS
|------- | --------------------------------------------

The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon and should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and their related notes included in
this annual report on Form 20-F. This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, or the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or
the Exchange Act. In evaluating our business, you should carefully consider the information provided under Item 3.D. Key Information  Risk Factors. We caution you that our business and financial performance are subject to
substantial risks and uncertainties.

A. Operating Results

Overview

We are a leading China-based IT services provider, serving both
Greater China and Global clients. Revenues from our Greater China clients include all revenues from companies headquartered in Greater China, and revenues from Global clients include all revenues from companies headquartered outside of Greater
China, including revenues from the Greater China-based operations of these overseas clients. Net revenues from our Greater China and Global client groups accounted for 39.3% and 60.7% of our net revenues in 2008, 57.6% and 42.4% of our net revenues
in 2009 and 55.9% and 44.1% of our net revenues in 2010, respectively.

Our integrated suite of IT services and solutions
includes IT Services (including application development and maintenance services, or ADM, R&D services and infrastructure and software services), Consulting & Solutions and BPO services. Our IT Services, Consulting & Solutions
and BPO service lines accounted for 66.9%, 32.5% and 0.6% of our net revenues in 2008, 64.1%, 33.1% and 2.8% of our net revenues in 2009 and 68.5%, 27.6% and 3.9% of our net revenues in 2010, respectively.

To date, we have focused on serving clients in four target industry verticals, each with a large and growing demand for IT services and
solutions: technology; communications; banking, financial services and insurance, or BFSI; and energy, transportation and public sector. Our technology, communications, BFSI, and energy, transportation and public sector industry verticals accounted
for 48.7%, 24.1%, 15.9% and 7.7% of our net revenues in 2008, 40.0%, 32.6%, 14.3% and 10.0% of our net revenues in 2009, and 33.1%, 38.3%, 17.1% and 6.4% of our net revenues in 2010, respectively.

We have built one of the largest sales and service delivery platforms for IT services and solutions in China. We have grown from six
sales and delivery centers as of January 1, 2007 to 19 sales and delivery centers as of the date of this annual report, of which 13 are located in China, spanning tier one cities, such as Beijing, Shanghai and Shenzhen, as well as key tier two
and three cities, such as Chengdu, Dalian, Nanjing, Tianjin, Wuhan and Wuxi. We also have operations in the United States, Europe and Japan that are close to the main offices of key Global clients.

##### Table of Contents

Resource management and planning is critically important to supporting our growth, and we
are committed to effectively recruiting, training, developing and retaining our human capital. Our total number of employees has grown from 1,527 employees as of January 1, 2007 to 9,285 employees as of December 31, 2010. In 2008, we
established dedicated training centers alongside our sales and delivery centers in Wuxi and Tianjin, and we have since added a training center in Guangzhou. In 2009, we helped establish and fund a training institute in cooperation with the Wuxi City
government, the iCarnegie-iSoftStone training institute, in which we have an equity investment. The iCarnegie-iSoftStone training institute utilizes the technical curriculum and professional certifications developed and maintained by Carnegie Mellon
University, with an annual training capacity of up to 10,000 students. The iCarnegie-iSoftStone training institute had 22 full-time and 8 part-time tutors as of March 31, 2011 and trained approximately 3,300 students in 2010. In January 2011, we
replaced our training center in Wuxi with the iCarnegie-iSoftStone training institute (which will perform all our training functions in Wuxi going forward). Our Top 300 leadership development program is focused on identifying, training,
promoting and relocating, as appropriate, qualified candidates to meet our middle and senior management needs.

Since
inception, our net revenues have grown primarily through our organic business development efforts and strategic acquisitions. Historically, acquisitions have allowed us to acquire additional expertise and capabilities and expand our client base and
presence in key client locations, such as the United States and Japan. Recent strategic acquisitions include: our January 2008 acquisition of the IT services business of Shanghai Jiefeng Computer Science Co., Ltd., or Shanghai Jiefeng, a long-time
Microsoft business partner, which increased our IT Services business with Microsoft; our February 2008 acquisition of Akona, which provided us consulting capabilities in the United States and further expanded our client relationship with Microsoft
for Consulting & Solutions and IT Services; our March 2009 acquisition of the IT services business of Shenzhen Star Ronghe Science and Technology Co., Ltd., or Shenzhen Star, which enhanced our client relationship with Huawei and
significantly increased the growth of our R&D services line; and our January 2011 acquisition of iHealthStone Co., Ltd., or iHealthStone, which enhanced our capability in providing IT services to Greater China and Global clients in the
healthcare industry.

In 2008, 2009 and 2010, our net revenues were $82.5 million, $134.4 million and $197.0 million,
respectively, representing a CAGR of 54.5%. In 2008, 2009 and 2010, our net income (loss) increased from a net loss of $3,000 to net income of $9.0 million, and then decreased to a net loss of $3.6 million, respectively, primarily due to share-based
compensation charges on options granted to directors, employees and consultants and changes in the fair value of the return reset features and conversion feature of our convertible notes. Our non-GAAP net income for 2008, 2009 and 2010, which
excludes share-based compensation, amortization of intangible assets from acquisitions, interest expense of convertible notes, changes in fair value of contingent consideration in connection with business combinations, changes in the fair value of
the convertible notes derivatives, changes in fair value of warrants and gain on bargain purchase of a business from our U.S. GAAP net income (loss), were $4.7 million, $13.4 million and $19.6 million, respectively. For a reconciliation of our
non-GAAP net income to our U.S. GAAP net income (loss), see footnote (4) on page 5 of this report.

Factors Affecting Our Results of
Operations

We believe that the most significant macro-level factors affecting our results of operations include:



| |  |  | health of the global economy and the growth and development of Chinas economy;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the overall growth of Chinas IT services industry;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | IT spending by Greater China and Global clients;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | competition and related pricing pressure from other IT services providers in China, India and other global delivery locations;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | wage inflation, particularly in China where most of our employees are based; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | changes in exchange rates, especially changes in the exchange rate between the Renminbi and the U.S. dollar.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Our results of operations are also expected to benefit from PRC government policies and regulations designed to foster the IT services
industry in China. These policies and benefits are reflected in, among other things:



| |  |  | Chinas IT services industry designation as a priority industry under the PRC governments current and upcoming Five-Year Plans, the central
governments strategic roadmap for economic development;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | strong central, provincial and local government support for China-based IT services providers in the form of grants, subsidies, incentive and other
awards for training, technology development, research and development and other infrastructure development;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | favorable tax treatment and policies, including the tax policy announced in July 2010 exempting certain companies located in 21 jurisdictions,
including Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, from paying a 5% business tax on income derived from contracts signed with offshore entities for providing information technology outsourcing, business processing outsourcing and knowledge process
outsourcing services; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | actions by the Chinese government to encourage state-owned enterprises to outsource more IT and non-core operational functions to enhance their
competitiveness and efficiency.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Early on, we sought to identify and benefit from the various government
incentives, subsidies and other efforts designed to promote growth of the IT services industry in China. Government subsidies are reflected in our consolidated statement of operations for 2008, 2009 and 2010 as (i) a reduction to related
expenses, primarily cost of revenues, of $1.7 million, $2.1 million and $7.7 million, respectively, and (ii) other income of $0.9 million, $3.0 million and $3.3 million, respectively.

Our results of operations in any given period are more directly affected by company specific factors, including:



| |  |  | Revenue mix by service line. Our IT Services, Consulting & Solutions and BPO service lines accounted for 66.9%, 32.5% and 0.6% of our
net revenues in 2008, 64.1%, 33.1% and 2.8% of our net revenues in 2009 and 68.5%, 27.6% and 3.9% of our net revenues in 2010, respectively. Our Consulting & Solutions service line has generally enjoyed higher margins, followed by our IT
Services then BPO service lines. As the mix of services we deliver in any period will vary, we expect our margins will vary accordingly.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Our ability to deepen and expand our suite of service offerings while maintaining our high standard of quality. The breadth and depth of
our service offerings impacts our ability to grow revenues from new and existing clients. Through research and development, targeted hiring and strategic acquisitions, we have proactively invested in broadening our existing service lines, including
those for serving our specific industry verticals. Our future growth and success depend significantly on our ability to anticipate the needs of our clients and rapidly develop and maintain these capabilities, including relevant industry vertical
domain knowledge and technological capabilities required to meet those needs, while maintaining our high standard of quality.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Diversity of our client base. In recent years, as we have expanded significantly in the IT services industry, we have diversified our
client base of both Greater China and Global clients. In the twelve months ended December 31, 2010, our clients included 76 Fortune 500 companies, of which 24 were Greater China clients and 52 were Global clients. While we are seeking out new
clients in each of our target industry verticals, we will continue to enhance our strategic relationships with our existing clients. Our ten largest clients accounted for 49.7%, 56.7% and 54.3% of our net revenues in 2008, 2009 and 2010,
respectively. The gain or loss of any significant client, or any significant change in the business volume from a significant client, will affect our results of operations.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Pricing of our services. For time-and-expense contracts, our billing rates are a key factor impacting our gross margins and profitability.
Billing rates vary by service offering and location of service delivery, and aggregate billings per engagement are driven by a number of factors, including the mix of delivery method (onsite/onshore or offsite/offshore) and the mix of experience
levels of personnel on a particular project. Some larger clients receive reduced pricing through reduced billing rates. As a client relationship matures and deepens, we seek to maximize our billings and profitability by expanding the scope of
services offered to the client and optimizing the mix of professionals providing services to that client. We are entering into a growing portion of our contracts on a fixed-price basis. Our ability to profitably price these contracts requires that
we accurately assess the time and resources required for completing projects. Underestimating the required time and resources may result in cost overruns or mismatches in project staffing, thereby yielding lower profit margins than anticipated.
Conversely, overestimating our costs may result in our submitting uncompetitive bids and inability to win business.

| |  |  | Effective retention and management of employees. Our ability to effectively retain and manage our employees will have an effect on our
gross margin and our results of operations. We manage employee headcount and utilization based on ongoing assessments of our project pipeline and requirements for professional capabilities. An unanticipated termination of a significant project could
also cause us to experience lower employee utilization resulting from a higher than expected number of idle employees. Our ability to effectively utilize our employees is typically improved by longer-term engagements due to increasing predictability
of client needs over the course of the engagement. Furthermore although our headcount has grown significantly, we have experienced what we believe to be relatively low attrition rates of 17.7%, 12.8% and 19.8% in 2008, 2009 and 2010,
respectively, largely by offering an attractive working environment, ongoing training and diverse career development opportunities. A significant increase in our attrition rate could decrease our productivity and, in turn, our profitability.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Investments in our delivery platform. We have grown from six sales and delivery centers as of January 1, 2007 to 19 sales and delivery
centers as of the date of this annual report, of which 13 are located in China, spanning tier one cities such as Beijing, Shanghai and Shenzhen, as well as key tier two and three cities such as Chengdu, Dalian, Nanjing, Tianjin, Wuhan and Wuxi, and
we have operations in the United States, Europe and Japan that are close to the main offices of key Global clients. Our integrated global delivery platform allows us to deliver our services through a blend of onsite/onshore and offsite/offshore
methods. Early on, we recognized the benefits of expanding into Chinas tier two and three cities, including more favorable blended labor costs and the ability to attract and retain required talent in increasing scale. For example, by 2006 we
had established sales and delivery centers in Dalian and Wuhan. Our ability to effectively utilize this robust delivery platform will significantly affect our results of operations in the future.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Investments in training and R&D. To develop deeper industry knowledge and deeper understanding of our clients needs and more quickly
and cost-effectively address our clients requirements while maintaining the high quality standard of our services, we continually invest in training and research and development. In 2008, we established dedicated training centers alongside our
sales and delivery centers in Wuxi and Tianjin, and we have since added a training center in Guangzhou. In 2009, we helped establish and fund a training institute in cooperation with the Wuxi City government, the iCarnegie-iSoftStone training
institute, in which we have an equity investment. The iCarnegie-iSoftStone training institute utilizes the technical curriculum and professional certifications developed and maintained by Carnegie Mellon University, with an annual training capacity
of up to 10,000 students. The iCarnegie-iSoftStone training institute had 22 full-time and 8 part-time tutors as of March 31, 2011 and trained approximately 3,300 students in 2010. We expect to open another training center in Dalian in 2011. In
January 2011, we replaced our training center in Wuxi with the iCarnegie-iSoftStone training institute (which will perform all our training functions in Wuxi going forward). In addition, we continuously invest in R&D to enhance our domain
knowledge and improve our competitiveness. Among other activities, we established four iSoftStone R&D institutes in Beijing, Tianjin, Wuhan and Wuxi and have leveraged our R&D efforts to build a library of industry-specific proprietary
software modules (currently over 50 modules) for our use in the delivery of our services. We expect that our ability to effectively utilize our training and R&D capabilities will significantly affect our results of operations in the future.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Impact of strategic alliances and business acquisitions. We have pursued and may continue to pursue strategic alliance and acquisition
opportunities to expand our geographic presence, establish or deepen client relationships, increase our service offerings and capabilities and enhance our industry and technical expertise. Our acquisitions of Beijing Kebao System Engineering Co.,
Ltd., or Beijing Kebao in 2007 and Akona in 2008, for example, enabled us to rapidly enter into the Japanese market and expand our U.S. presence. Our ability to successfully identify, execute, integrate and manage new alliances and acquisitions can
have a significant effect on our results of operations. We often enter into strategic alliances with Global technology clients as they are expanding into the China market. Examples of these strategic alliances include our alliance with Sungard where
we are assisting in the deployment and implementation of Sungards iWorks solution at domestic China insurance clients.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Seasonality. Our business is also affected by seasonal trends. In particular, our net revenues are typically progressively higher in the second,
third and fourth quarters of each year compared to the first quarter of each year due to seasonal trends, such as: (i) a general slowdown in business activities and a reduced number of working days for our professionals during the first quarter
of each year as a result of the Chinese New Year holiday period, and (ii) our customers in general tend to spend their IT budgets in the second half of the year and in particular the fourth quarter. Other factors that may cause our quarterly
operating results to fluctuate include, among others, changes in general economic conditions in China and the impact of unforeseen events. We believe that our net revenues will continue to be affected in the future by seasonal trends. As a result,
you may not be able to rely on period to period comparisons of our operating results as an indication of our future performance, and we believe it is more meaningful to evaluate our business on an annual basis.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Acquisitions

Since inception, our net revenues have grown primarily from organic business development, supplemented by strategic acquisitions. Historically, acquisitions have allowed us to acquire additional expertise
and capabilities and expand our client base and presence in key client locations, such as the United States and Japan. The financial results for our acquired businesses are consolidated in our operating results for periods after the acquisition. Due
to integration with our other operations, it is generally difficult for us to track the revenue contributions of specific, individual acquisitions in subsequent periods. As a result, our financial results in corresponding prior periods may not be
directly comparable. The following are what we believe are our most significant recent acquisitions:



| |  |  | In January 2008, we acquired Shanghai Jiefeng, which is a long-time Microsoft business partner and has strong expertise in Microsoft .Net based
technologies. This acquisition brought us proprietary Microsoft .Net based technologies and strengthened our capability to provide Microsoft .Net based application development services to clients.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | In February 2008, we acquired Akona, providing us with consulting and IT services capabilities in the United States and further expanding our client
relationship with Microsoft.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | In March 2009, we acquired Shenzhen Star, enhancing our client relationship with Huawei and significantly increasing the growth of our R&D
services.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | In March 2009, we acquired the IT services business of MDCL-Frontline (China) Ltd., or MDCL, and its affiliates in Beijing, Shanghai, Hong Kong and
Taiwan, securing a group of high quality personnel and increasing our presence in Hong Kong and Taiwan. In April 2011, we entered into a definitive agreement to acquire a minority equity interest (with an option to acquire a majority interest) in
MDCL. The investment will significantly enhance our capability to provide system integration and maintenance services to domestic Chinese clients as well as Global clients with significant operations in Greater China. The transaction is expected to
close in the second quarter of 2011.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | In October 2010, we acquired Ascend Technologies, Inc., or Ascend, expanding our geographic and service capabilities to better serve global BFSI
clients and deepen our BFSI domain expertise.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | In November 2010, we acquired Shanghai Kangshi Information Systems Company Limited, or Shanghai Kangshi, enhancing our capability to provide business
intelligence services to our Greater China and Global clients.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | In January 2011, we acquired iHealthStone, which enhanced our capability in providing IT services to Greater China and Global clients in the healthcare
industry.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We anticipate that selective acquisitions and strategic alliances will expand our capabilities,
geographic presence and service offerings, increase our scale, and continue to be a source of revenue growth. Acquisition-related challenges include quickly and effectively integrating the acquired business and services into our existing business
and service offerings and retaining acquired clients and employees. For additional information on these and other acquisitions, see Item 3.D. Key InformationRisk FactorsRisks Relating to Our Business and IndustryIf we fail to
integrate or manage acquired companies efficiently, or if the acquired companies do not perform to our expectations, we may not be able to realize the benefits envisioned for such acquisitions, and our overall profitability and growth plans may be
adversely affected.

As a result, we may not realize the benefits of our acquisitions as soon as anticipated or at all.
Also, these challenges become more difficult as we expand our business from primarily operating in China to operating on a global basis, or as we acquire technology or industry domain knowledge or technical know-how in which we have not historically
maintained expertise.

Certain Income Statement Line Items

Net Revenues

Our net revenues represent our total revenues from
operations, less business taxes. In recent years, we have experienced rapid growth and significantly expanded our business. We are subject to business taxes at a rate of 5% of total revenues for certain types of contracts. Our net revenues increased
from $82.5 million in 2008 to $134.4 million in 2009 and $197.0 million in 2010, or 63.0% and 46.6% growth, respectively. We discuss below the breakdown of our net revenues by service line, geographic markets, client industry, major clients and
pricing method.

Net Revenues by Service Line

We derive net revenues by providing an integrated suite of IT services and solutions, including: (i) IT Services, which primarily
includes application development and maintenance, or ADM, as well as R&D services and infrastructure and software services; (ii) Consulting & Solutions; and (iii) BPO services. The following table presents our net revenues by

IT Services.Historically, IT Services has represented the substantial majority of our net revenues.
Our net revenues from IT Services increased significantly in absolute terms as a result of our continued ability to increase the number and scope of our engagements with our major IT Services clients and the strong demand for outsourced technology
services. The following table sets forth our net revenues by the major components of our IT Services for 2008, 2009 and 2010:

Key drivers for growth in particular IT Services components include:



| |  |  | Greater China clients increasing adoption of technology outsourcing and desire to engage with China-based companies as their providers;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Global clients increasing acceptance of China as a primary or complementary location for delivery of IT services;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a growing willingness by independent software vendors and hardware original equipment manufacturers, or OEMs, to outsource product development;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a growing willingness of our existing clients to engage us to provide additional services which they may not have purchased from us or others
previously; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | strategic acquisitions, such as our acquisition in March 2009 of the IT services business of Shenzhen Star, enhancing our client relationship with
Huawei and significantly increasing the growth of our R&D service line.

BPO Services.We began investing in our BPO service line and recognized our first BPO
services revenues in 2008. Our BPO service line leverages our industry expertise, allowing clients to achieve operational efficiencies and cost savings by outsourcing non-core business processes to us. By providing BPO services, we gain knowledge of
each clients unique business, often resulting in opportunities for us to cross-sell additional services.

While we
expect IT Services to continue to grow and account for the majority of our net revenues in the foreseeable future, we also expect continued growth in our Consulting & Solutions and BPO net revenues in absolute terms, and we expect our BPO
service line to account for an increasing percentage of our net revenues as we expand this service line.

Net Revenues by
Geographic Markets

We classify our net revenues into the following geographic markets: Greater China (which includes
China, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau) and Global (which includes the United States, Europe, Japan and others), which accounted for 39.3% and 60.7% of our net revenues in 2008, 57.6% and 42.4% of our net revenues in 2009 and 55.9% and 44.1% of our net
revenues in 2010, respectively. We record our net revenues based on the headquarters of our clients irrespective of the location of the specific client entity which we serve or the locations at which our services are delivered or the invoice is
rendered. The following table sets forth our net revenues by geographic market for 2008, 2009 and 2010:

The table above reflects, among other things, the strength of our Greater China business during the recent
economic crisis. Also, despite the significant slowing of IT spending in the United States and Europe, we were able to grow our net revenues in those markets, both organically and through key hiring and strategic acquisitions. In Japan, we
experienced a modest decline in net revenues from 2008 to 2009, then a modest rebound in 2010.

We strive to maintain a
balanced business mix from both Greater China and Global clients. We expect Greater China clients to continue outsourcing to third-party IT services providers to achieve the benefits associated with outsourcing, such as the ability to focus on their
core businesses, leverage best-in-class systems knowledge and benefit from operational efficiencies over time. Similarly, we expect that Global clients will increase their focus on China as a long-term growth market for their own products and
services and continue to develop long-term relationships with China-based IT services providers as they continue to diversify the key locations to which they send outsourced work.

Historically, we have primarily focused on clients in the technology industry and the communications
industry, which includes both telecommunications operators and communications equipment vendors. Our growth in net revenues from these industries has been driven primarily by the increase in demand for outsourced technology services. In the future,
we expect to focus increasingly on serving clients in a broader range of industries, including a greater focus on BFSI and energy, transportation and public sector.

Net Revenues by Key Clients

We have grown with our clients by increasingly
expanding the scope and size of our engagements, and we have grown our key client base both by our internal business development efforts and through strategic acquisitions. From 2008 to 2010, we increased the number of clients generating over $1.0
million in annual net revenues from 13 in 2008 to 20 in 2009 and 30 in 2010, and we increased the number of clients generating over $3.0 million in annual net revenues from four in 2008 to six in 2009 and eight in 2010. The following table sets
forth total net revenues contributed by our top five and top ten clients for 2008, 2009 and 2010:

In 2008, Microsoft
contributed more than 10% of our net revenues; and in 2009 and 2010, Huawei and Microsoft each contributed more than 10% of our net revenues, together accounting for 34.4% and 37.3% of our total net revenues in each period, respectively.

The volume of work we perform for specific clients is likely to vary from year to year, as we are typically not their exclusive external
IT services provider, and a major client in one year may not contribute the same amount or percentage of our net revenues in a subsequent year.

Net Revenues by Pricing Method

We provide our services on a time-and-expense basis, a fixed-price basis or, with respect to our BPO services, on the basis of volume of
work processed for our clients. Our engagement models depend on the type of services provided to a client, the mix and locations of professionals involved, and the business outcomes our clients are looking to achieve. Historically, we provided more
of our net revenues on a time-and-expense basis, but over time we have begun to derive a greater portion of net revenues on a fixed-price basis, which our Consulting & Solutions clients in Greater China typically prefer. The following table
sets forth out net revenues by pricing method for 2008, 2009 and 2010:

|(1) | Includes government subsidies as a reduction of cost of revenues totaling $1.6 million, $1.8 million and $6.1 million in 2008, 2009 and 2010, respectively.
|--- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Cost of Revenues

The principal component of our cost of revenues is salaries and other compensation expenses, including share-based compensation expenses. Salary and compensation expenses for senior management who are not
directly responsible for performing client services, business development personnel and other personnel involved in support functions are included in operating expenses. Our salary and compensation expenses increased by 78.9% from $37.5 million in
2008 to $67.1 million in 2009 and by 43.8% to $96.6 million in 2010.

A significant majority of our employees are located in
China, where labor costs in the IT services industry are relatively low compared to more developed nations. Within China, labor costs vary across different regions, with wage levels generally being higher in more developed cities such as Beijing,
Shanghai and Shenzhen. As a result, our cost of revenues is significantly affected by the location from which we deliver services. Early on, we recognized the cost benefits of expanding into Chinas tier two and three cities and have increased
the proportion of our employees in sales and delivery centers in cities with lower wage levels. For example, by 2006, we had established sales and delivery centers and sales offices in Dalian and Wuhan. As wages in China continue to increase, we may
experience increases in our labor costs, particularly expenses for project managers and other mid-level professionals. We seek to maintain compensation levels in accordance with prevailing trends in our industry. We expect to continue to offset our
labor costs by leveraging the benefits of government subsidies, which has resulted in lower salary and compensation expenses as a percentage of revenue.

Subcontracting costs reflect purchases of certain implementation services and, to a lesser
extent, hardware and software from third parties. These expenses have varied from period to period, primarily as result of our project-by-project assessment of the need for subcontracting services.

Other expenses included in cost of revenues include rental expenses, travel and transportation expenses, and depreciation and
amortization expenses.

We expect our cost of revenues to increase in absolute dollar terms with the growth of our business
and to vary as a percentage of net revenues depending on service mix, billing rates and our ability to capture operational efficiencies from our integrated delivery platform as our business grows in China and globally.

Gross Profit and Gross Margin

Gross profit is equal to net revenues less cost of revenues. Gross margin is equal to gross profit as a percentage of net revenues. Our gross profit and gross margin are affected by factors affecting our
net revenues, such as overall demand for outsourced technology services, pricing and billing rates for our individual client engagements, and our cost of revenues, such as wage levels. Other factors resulting in changes in our gross profit and gross
margin include: our ability to optimize employee utilization, delivery of our services through a blend of our onsite/onshore or offsite/offshore delivery methods and to maintain appropriate staffing levels; changes in pricing terms; and variation in
the duration, type, size, timing and scope of our engagements.

Our overall gross profit and gross margin is impacted by our
service mix. Generally, we realize the highest gross margins on our Consulting & Solutions services, followed by our IT Services and then our BPO services. We anticipate opportunities to expand our overall margins as we begin to realize
operational efficiencies from prior investments in our global delivery platform and software modules, partially offset by lower gross margins on our BPO services. BPO services generally generate lower overall gross margins, particularly in the
initial stages of an engagement, with margin improvement as these services scale and mature. BPO services contribute favorably to our client retention and understanding of our clients businesses, and provide opportunities to cross-sell our
other services. Our overall gross profit and gross margin is also impacted by our government subsidies, which serve primarily to offset our salary and compensation component of our cost of revenues. The amounts that we have received in the past have
fluctuated significantly.

Operating Expenses

Our operating expenses principally consist of general and administrative expenses, selling and marketing expenses and research and development expenses. The following table sets forth our operating
expenses in 2008, 2009 and 2010:

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salary and compensation expenses, including share-based compensation expenses,
relating to our finance, legal, human resources and executive office personnel, and also include rental expenses, depreciation and amortization expenses, office overhead, professional service fees and travel and transportation costs. Our general and
administrative expenses have increased primarily as a result of our expanding operations and the build out of our senior and mid-level management teams to support our growth. For example, for our Greater China operations, many of our key senior
management come from major global companies, and for our Global operations, our key senior regional managers include: in the United States, a former senior executive of EDS; in Japan, a former senior executive of IBM; and in Europe, a former senior
executive of Siemens. Our general and administrative expenses also increased as a result of additional professional services fees, such as auditing and legal consulting, as a result of our initial public offering.

We expect our general and administrative expenses to continue to increase in absolute terms as our business expands, as well as in
connection with the reporting and compliance costs related to being a public company. However, as a result of our management and infrastructure investments, we believe our platform is capable of sustaining a substantial increase in net revenues
without a proportionate increase in our general and administrative expenses, with general and administrative expenses expected to decline as a percentage of our net revenues as we grow our business.

Selling and Marketing Expenses

Selling and marketing expenses consist primarily of salary and compensation expenses, including share-based compensation expenses,
relating to our sales and marketing personnel, and also include amortization expenses, entertainment, travel and transportation, and other expenses relating to our marketing activities. Our selling and marketing expenses in 2008, 2009 and 2010
included $2.2 million, $1.9 million, and $1.6 million respectively, in amortization expenses related to the intangible assets of our acquired entities, primarily of acquired client bases. While we expect our selling and marketing
expenses to increase in absolute terms as we continue our business expansion, we expect these expenses to remain relatively steady as a percentage of our net revenues to support our business growth.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses consist primarily of compensation and benefit expenses, including share-based compensation expenses, relating to our research and development personnel, and also include
travel and transportation, office overhead and other expenses relating to our research and development activities. Although we expend significant resources on our research and development efforts, we have done so by efficiently leveraging
Chinas overall cost structure, experience gained from prior client engagements and our continuous investment in our library of industry-specific proprietary software modules (currently over 50 modules). This investment has enhanced our domain
knowledge, improved our competitiveness and enabled us to identify attractive market opportunities for new and enhanced services and solutions. We have also established four iSoftStone R&D institutes in Beijing, Tianjin, Wuhan and Wuxi. We
expect to continue to invest in research and development. We expect that our ability to effectively utilize our research and development capabilities will significantly affect our results of operations in the future.

Government Subsidies

Government subsidies consist of government grants, subsidies and similar incentives that we apply for, and from time to time we receive from various PRC government authorities, related, for example, to
grants for training and employment of graduates, technology development and assistance for the development of operational infrastructure. The amounts that we have received in the past have fluctuated significantly. While we intend to continue to
apply for government subsidies and government incentives in the future, there can be no guarantee that we will receive any such subsidies and incentives in the future.

Government subsidies are recorded as receivables when the approval documents are obtained from the local government authorities and we have the right to receive the subsidies. Subsidies intended to
compensate for specific expenditure are recognized in our statement of operations as deductions to the cost of revenues and related expenses when the receivable is booked. Subsidies not intended to compensate for specific expenditures are recognized
as other operating income when booked.

Early on, we sought to identify and benefit from the various government incentives,
subsidies and other efforts designed to promote growth of the IT services industry in China. Government subsidies are reflected in our consolidated statement of operations for 2008, 2009 and 2010 as (i) a reduction to related expenses,
primarily cost of revenues, of $1.7 million, $2.1 million and $7.7 million, respectively, and (ii) other income of $0.9 million, $3.0 million and $3.3 million, respectively.

Interest Expense

Our interest expenses have arisen from our
short-term bank borrowings, primarily at fixed interest rates, and accrued interest on our convertible notes. Our interest expense in 2008, 2009 and 2010 was $0.4 million, $0.9 million and $5.7 million, respectively. Our interest expense in 2008 and
2009 was mainly related to interest on short-term bank borrowings. Our interest expense in 2010 included imputed interest of $4.4 million accrued for our $38.0 million principal amount of convertible notes and $1.3 million of interest on short-term
bank borrowings. In connection with our initial public offering, which closed in December 2010, $18.0 million of the $38.0 million principal amount of convertible notes, together with accrued interest thereon, were converted into our ordinary
shares. On March 3, 2011, the holders of the remaining $20.0 million principal amount of convertible notes agreed to convert all their convertible notes plus accrued interest into 20,406,720 of our ordinary shares. After the first quarter of
2011, when the conversion was completed, there will no longer be an impact on our statement of operations from (i) the change in fair value of convertible notes derivatives or (ii) accrued interest expenses on our convertible notes.

Change in Fair Value of Convertible Notes Derivatives

In December 2009 and April 2010, we issued notes convertible into our ordinary shares in the aggregate principal amount of $38 million in a series of private placements to several investors. Certain terms
of these convertible notes were determined as embedded derivatives and carried at fair value at each period end. The change in fair value of convertible notes derivatives was recognized as an expense of $8.4 million in 2010 in our consolidated
statement of operations. In connection with our initial public offering in December 2010, our convertible notes with an aggregate principal amount of $18.0 million were converted into our ordinary shares. In March 2011, all of the remaining
convertible notes with an aggregate principal amount of $20.0 million were converted into our ordinary shares. The change in fair value of convertible notes derivatives was recognized as an income of approximately $2.8 million in the first quarter
of 2011 in our consolidated statement of operations.

Income Tax Benefit

Although we had operating income in 2008, 2009 and 2010, we achieved income tax benefit of $0.5 million, $0.8 million and $0.3 million in
2008, 2009 and 2010, respectively. These income tax benefits reflect the fact that: (i) our major profitable entities in China, where our operations are primarily based, either benefited from reduced income tax rates or were otherwise not
subject to income tax in the periods reported, and (ii) the income tax expenses of the profitable entities were offset by the tax credits of other loss making entities, which deferred tax assets benefit has been recognized. In 2011 and in the
foreseeable future, as certain of our significant subsidiaries are expected to (i) have taxable income and/or (ii) be subject to expiring tax holidays and other benefits that have the effect of raising applicable taxable rates, we expect
to incur income tax expense.

Share-Based Compensation Expenses

During 2008, 2009 and 2010, we recognized share-based compensation expenses in connection with option grants and arrangements with respect
to unvested shares. The following table sets forth the share-based compensation expenses recognized as part of cost of revenues, general and administrative expenses, selling and marketing expenses and research and development expenses, respectively,
during 2008, 2009 and 2010:

Option Grants

We adopted our 2008 Share Incentive Plan, or the 2008 Plan, in March 2008 and subsequently amended it in September 2010. We
adopted our 2009 Share Incentive Plan, or the 2009 Plan, in December 2009, and subsequently amended it in April and September 2010. As of April 30, 2011, options to purchase 36,779,017 ordinary shares are outstanding under our 2008 Plan and options
to purchase 46,086,167 ordinary shares are outstanding under our 2009 Plan.

We adopted our 2010 Performance
Plan, or the 2010 Plan, in November 2010. We stopped granting options or any other awards under the 2008 Plan and 2009 Plan upon the adoption of the 2010 Plan. The maximum number of ordinary shares that may be issued pursuant to all awards under the
2010 Plan is 7,500,000, plus the number of any shares subject to share options granted under the 2008 Plan or 2009 Plan and outstanding on the date of the adoption of the 2010 Plan, which expire, or for any reason are cancelled or terminated, after
the date of the adoption of the 2010 Plan without being exercised, plus an annual increase on January 1 of each calendar year beginning in 2011 equal to the lesser of (i) two and one-half percent (2.5%) of the total number of our
ordinary shares issued and outstanding on December 31 of the immediately preceding calendar year, (ii) 20,000,000 ordinary shares or (iii) such number of ordinary shares as may be established by our board of directors. As of April 30,
2011, the maximum number of ordinary shares that may be issued pursuant to all awards under the 2010 Plan is 21,099,096 and options to purchase 492,500 ordinary shares and awards with respect to 665,999 restricted shares are outstanding under the
2010 Plan.

Share-based payment transactions with employees such as share options are measured based on the grant date fair
value of the equity instrument. Subject to certain forfeiture assumptions and related adjustments, we recognize the compensation costs over the requisite service period of the award, generally the vesting period of the award. Shares awards issued to
non-employees, such as consultants, are measured at fair value at the earlier of the commitment date or the date the service is completed and recognized over the period the service is provided.

Based on existing option grants as of December 31, 2010, we had a total of $10.9 million in unrecognized compensation expenses
related to unvested options, which we expect to recognize over a weighted averaged period of 2.2 years using the straight-line method. We expect to continue to grant options under our share incentive plans and incur further share-based compensation
charges in future periods.

Non-vested Shares

We entered into the arrangements described below which constitute share-based compensation arrangements with respect to non-vested shares and resulted in share-based compensation expense:



| |  |  | In November 2005, in connection with our series A financing, 90,304,561 ordinary shares owned by certain of our founders, who were also our senior
management, were subject to repurchase rights at $0.01485 per share (significantly lower than their fair value at the date of grant), exercisable if any of these founders terminated their employment with us within 24 months. This arrangement was
treated as a share-based compensation based on the difference of the grant date fair value of the ordinary shares and the repurchase price.

| |  |  | From 2006 to 2010, we granted 1,580,764 ordinary shares, in aggregate, to certain employees in connection with the acquisition of Beijing Kebao. in
2006, the acquisition of the IT services business of MDCL in 2009 and the employment of certain other employees, subject to a right of return in our favor for free if the grantees terminated their employment within a period of 24-36 months. These
arrangements were treated as a share-based compensation. In 2008, 2009 and in 2010, we recognized $52,000, $86,000, and $50,000 in related share-based compensation expense in connection with these arrangements.

Based on existing non-vested shares as of December 31, 2010, we had a total of $5,700 in unrecognized compensation expenses related
to non-vested shares.

Other share-based compensation arrangements

In April 2010, we entered into a share incentive agreement with certain key employees. Pursuant to this agreement, we issued 4,500,000 of
our ordinary shares in April and June 2010, which were considered share-based compensation, and we incurred a $2.7 million charge to our consolidated statement of operations immediately for 2010.

We also agreed to issue up to 1,000,000 of our ordinary shares to these key employees based on their performance in 2010. We recognized a
$640,000 compensation expense for 2010 for this share-based compensation arrangement.

China

Our PRC subsidiaries are incorporated in the PRC and are governed by PRC income tax laws and regulations. Prior to January 1, 2008, entities established in the PRC were generally subject to a 30%
national and 3% local enterprise income tax rate. Various preferential tax treatments promulgated by national tax authorities were available to foreign-invested enterprises or high or new technology enterprises located in certain high-tech zones of
China. iSoftStone WFOE, as a new technology enterprise, was granted a six-year tax holiday commencing from 2006, which entitles it to a three-year income tax exemption followed by a three-year 50% enterprise income tax rate reduction. Under the
Enterprise Income Tax Law effective on January 1, 2008, the PRC has adopted a uniform enterprise income tax rate of 25% for all PRC enterprises (including foreign-invested enterprises) and revoked the previous tax exemption, reduction and
preferential treatments applicable to foreign-invested enterprises. However, the Enterprise Income Tax Law also permits enterprises to continue to enjoy their existing tax incentives, adjusted by certain transitional phase-out rules, under which
enterprises established before the promulgation date of the Enterprise Income Tax Law that were granted tax holidays under the then effective tax laws or regulations may continue to enjoy their tax holidays until their expiration. iSoftStone WFOE,
as an enterprise established before the promulgation date of the Enterprise Income Tax Law, is entitled to enjoy its exemption of enterprise income tax in 2008 and 50% tax reduction in 2009, 2010 and 2011. The Enterprise Income Tax Law and its
implementation regulations also permit qualified high-tech enterprises to enjoy a reduced 15% enterprise income tax rate. iSoftStone WFOE and Guangzhou Ruandong Zhiruan obtained the qualification certificates of high-tech enterprise
status in 2008 with a valid period of three years from 2008 to 2010, and therefore they are eligible to enjoy a preferential tax rate of 15% as long as they maintain their qualification as a high-tech enterprise. Our local tax bureau has confirmed
that the 50% reduction may be applied to the 15% preferential rate that iSoftStone WFOE enjoys as a qualified high-tech enterprise, notwithstanding a tax circular issued by the State Administration of Taxation that deals with whether these tax
benefits are mutually exclusive. As a result of the foregoing preferential tax treatments and its continuous qualification as a high-tech enterprise, iSoftStone WFOE was exempted from enterprise income tax for 2008 and was subject to enterprise
income taxes of 7.5% for the years 2009 to 2010. Guangzhou Ruandong Zhiruan, as a qualified high-tech enterprise, was subject to enterprise income tax at a rate of 15% from 2008 until its dissolution in September 2010. See Item 3.D. Key
InformationRisk FactorsRisks Related to Doing Business in ChinaThe discontinuation or revocation of the preferential tax treatments and government incentives available to us could decrease our net income and materially and
adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Under the Enterprise Income Tax Law and its
implementation regulations, a newly established software enterprise is entitled to a two-year exemption followed by a three-year 50% enterprise income tax rate reduction from its first profit-making year. iSoftStone Information System Service Co.,
Ltd. has been recognized as a newly established software enterprise and was entitled to an enterprise income tax exemption for 2008 and 2009, and a 50% enterprise income tax rate reduction for 2010, 2011 and 2012, based on the statutory enterprise
income tax rate of 25%, if it can maintain its qualification as a software enterprise. In addition, iSoftStone Information System Service Co., Ltd. was recognized as a key software enterprise in 2010 and was entitled to a reduced income tax rate of
10% for 2010 according to a Notice regarding Several Preferential Policies for Enterprise Income Tax promulgated by the Ministry of Finance and the State Administration of Taxation on February 22, 2008. Since we obtained the approval of software
enterprise in 2011, the difference between the tax rate of 10% and what we used in 2010, which was 12.5%, was reflected in our operating result in first quarter of 2011. Similarly, iSoftStone Information Technology Co., Ltd., which is qualified as a
software enterprise, is entitled to an enterprise income tax exemption for 2010 and 2011, and a 50% enterprise income tax rate reduction for 2012, 2013 and 2014, based on the statutory enterprise income tax rate of 25%.

In addition, the PRC government has provided various incentives to companies in the software industry and to certain qualified technology
related transactions in order to encourage developments of the software and technology related industries in China. A number of our PRC subsidiaries currently receive value-added tax, or VAT, rebates and business tax exemptions in additional to the
preferential enterprise income tax treatments as described above. For some of our software solutions, we are entitled to receive a 14% VAT rebate on the total VAT payable at the rate of 17% before December 31, 2010 if we have registered the
copyright for these solutions in China and have met certain government authorities requirements. We record the VAT rebate as revenue when we pay the relevant VAT and properly file the rebate application to tax authority when the related
rebates become receivables. In addition, we are currently exempted from business taxes for revenues generated from technology development, transfer and related consulting services.

On July 28, 2010, the PRC government issued a preferential tax policy which will exempt certain companies located in 21
jurisdictions including Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, among others, from paying a 5% business tax on income derived from contracts signed with offshore entities for providing information technology outsourcing, business processing
outsourcing and knowledge process outsourcing services. Those companies already taxed on such service outsourcing income since July 1, 2010 have been refunded within 2010. A number of our PRC subsidiaries qualify for the tax benefits as
provided in this new tax policy.

Preferential tax treatments and incentives granted to us by PRC governmental authorities are
subject to review and may be adjusted or revoked at any time in the future. The discontinuation or revocation of any preferential tax treatments and incentives currently available to us will cause our effective tax rate to increase, which will
decrease our net income and materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Dividends paid by our PRC subsidiaries out of the profits earned after December 31, 2007 to us were
and will continue to be subject to PRC withholding tax. The current withholding tax rate is 10%.

Aggregate undistributed
earnings of our subsidiaries located in the PRC that are available for distribution at December 31, 2009 are considered to be indefinitely reinvested under ASC topic 740Income Taxes-Other Considerations or Special Areas, and,
accordingly, no provision has been made for taxes that would be payable upon the distribution of those amounts to any entity within our company outside the PRC. Unrecognized deferred tax liabilities for temporary differences related to investments
in foreign subsidiaries were not recorded because the determination of that amount is not practicable.

Comparison of 2008, 2009 and 2010

Net Revenues

In recent years, we have experienced rapid growth and
significantly expanded our business. Our net revenues increased from $82.5 million in 2008 to $134.4 million in 2009 and $197.0 million in 2010, or 63.0% and 46.6% growth, respectively. The increase primarily reflects organic growth driven by, among
other things, growth in the China IT services market and domestic demand for outsourced technology services and consulting, despite the recent financial crisis, complemented by strategic acquisitions to acquire service capabilities, skilled
personnel and access to potential key clients. Our significant growth and several acquisitions in recent years make period-to-period comparison of our historical operating results less meaningful.

Net Revenues by Service Line

IT Services.Our net revenues from IT Services increased significantly from $55.1 million in 2008 to $86.1 million in 2009 and $134.9 million in 2010, or 56.2% and 56.6% growth, respectively,
primarily as a result of:



| |  |  | the growth of our ADM services net revenues, which increased from $21.2 million in 2008 to $42.8 million in 2009 and $61.8 million in 2010, or 101.8%
and 44.5% growth, respectively, primarily as a result of our organic growth with both Greater China and Global clients. We were successful in adding new clients and deepening and broadening our engagements with existing clients; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the growth of our R&D services net revenues, which increased from $32.6 million in 2008 to $41.3 million in 2009 and $66.8 million in 2010, or
26.6% and 61.8% growth, respectively, primarily as a result of the expansion of our relationship with Huawei as well as diversification of our Global client base, such as Ericsson, and our March 2009 acquisition of Shenzhen Star, which enhanced our
client relationship with Huawei and significantly increased the growth of our R&D service line.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Consulting & Solutions.Our net revenues from Consulting & Solutions increased significantly from $26.9 million
in 2008 to $44.5 million in 2009 and $54.3 million in 2010, or 65.6% and 22.2% growth, respectively, reflecting primarily organic growth of our business with Microsoft, as well as the addition of major new Greater China and Global clients, such as
AT&T and Bank of China.

BPO Services.We recognized our initial BPO service revenues in 2008, which increased from
$0.5 million in 2008 to $3.8 million in 2009 and $7.8 million in 2010, or 656.4% and 105.6% growth, respectively, primarily as a result of our winning new long-term contracts with clients in the banking and insurance industries.

Net Revenues by Geographic Markets.Our net revenues from Greater China clients increased significantly from $32.4 million in 2008
to $77.4 million in 2009 and $110.1 million in 2010, or 138.9% and 42.2% growth, respectively, primarily as a result of reflecting the continued growth and strength of our business in China. Our net revenues from Global clients increased from $50.1
million in 2008 to $57.0 million in 2009 and $86.9 million in 2010, or 13.8% and 52.5% growth, respectively, reflecting primarily our organic growth. Despite the significant slowing of IT spending in the United States and Europe, primarily in 2008
and 2009, we were able to grow our net revenues in those markets, both organically and through key hiring and strategic acquisitions. In Japan, we experienced a modest decline in net revenues from 2008 to 2009.

Net Revenues by Client Industry.Our net revenues from technology clients increased significantly from $40.2 million in 2008 to
$53.8 million in 2009 and $65.2 million in 2010, or 34.0% and 21.3% growth, respectively, primarily as a result of the growth of Microsoft and IBM, among others, as key clients. Our net revenues from communications clients increased significantly
from $19.8 million in 2008 to $43.8 million in 2009 and $75.7 million in 2010, or 120.8% and 72.8% growth, respectively, primarily as a result of the growth of Huawei, Alcatel-Lucent, AT&T, China Telecom, Ericsson, among others, as key clients.
Our net revenues from BFSI clients increased significantly from $13.1 million in 2008 to $19.2 million in 2009 and $33.6 million in 2010, or 46.0% and 75.0% growth, respectively, primarily as a result of the growth of Bank of China, China Everbright
Bank, China Life and UBS, among others, as key clients. Our net revenues from energy, transportation and public sector clients increased from $6.4 million in 2008 to $13.5 million in 2009 and $12.5 million in 2010, or 112.1% growth and 7.6% decrease
in net revenues, respectively. This fluctuation was primarily as a result of the growth of Chinas State Grid and PetroChina, as well as other public sector clients, as key clients in 2009, followed by the completion of a major project in 2010.
Our net revenues from clients in other industries increased significantly from $3.0 million in 2008 to $4.1 million in 2009 and $10.0 million in 2010, or 36.7% and 143.3% growth, respectively, primarily as a result of our organic growth and
diversification of our client base to several other industries.

Net Revenues by Key Clients.We have grown with our clients by increasingly expanding
the scope and size of our engagements. We have also grown our key client base. From 2008 to 2010, we increased the number of clients generating over $1.0 million in annual net revenues from 13 in 2008 to 20 in 2009 and 30 in 2010, and we increased
the number of clients generating over $3.0 million in annual net revenues from four in 2008 to six in 2009 and eight in 2010. In 2008, Microsoft contributed more than 10% of our net revenues. In 2009 and 2010, Huawei and Microsoft each contributed
more than 10% of our net revenues, together accounting for 34.4% and 37.3% of our total net revenues, respectively.

Cost of Revenues

Our cost of revenues increased from $55.1 million in 2008 to $88.4 million in 2009 to $125.7 million in 2010, or 60.5%
and 42.2% growth, respectively, primarily as a result of increased headcount to match the growth of our business. Our total number of employees grew from 4,205 employees as of December 31, 2008 to 7,676 employees as of December 31, 2009
and 9,285 employees as of December 31, 2010. However, our cost of revenues as a percentage of net revenues over the past three years fell from 66.8% in 2008 to 65.8% in 2009 and 63.8% in 2010, primarily due to our ability to leverage government
support resulting in lower salary and compensation expenses as a percentage of net revenue, as well as changes in our service mix and improvement in efficiency, partly offset by pricing pressures from some of our large IT services clients. The
following table sets forth our net revenues, cost of revenues, gross profit and gross margin, as well as a breakdown of the principal components of our cost of revenues in 2008, 2009 and 2010:

|(1) | Includes government subsidies as a reduction of cost of revenues totaling $1.6 million, $1.8 million and $6.1 million in 2008, 2009 and 2010, respectively.
|--- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In 2008, 2009 and 2010, salary and compensation expenses were $37.5 million, $67.1 million and $96.6 million,
representing 45.5%, 50.0% and 49.0% of our total net revenues, respectively. The period-over-period fluctuation in salary and compensation expenses as a percentage of revenue in 2008, 2009 and 2010 resulted primarily from headcount and wage
increases from 2008 to 2010, the impact of government subsidies and mix of services offered.

Subcontracting costs increased
from $12.8 million in 2008 to $13.5 million in 2009 and $16.3 million in 2010, representing 15.5%, 10.0% and 8.3% of our net revenues, respectively. The period-over-period increase in subcontracting costs is primarily due to increased purchases of
implementation services and, to a lesser extent, hardware and software from third parties.

Rental expenses increased from
$1.5 million in 2008 to $2.8 million in 2009 and $3.6 million in 2010, representing 1.8%, 2.1% and 1.8% of our net revenues, respectively. The period-over-period increase in rental expenses is primarily due to growth in the number of our service
delivery facilities, in particular to the expansion of our footprint in Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Tianjin and Wuxi in 2009 and Hangzhou in 2010.

Travel and transportation expenses increased from $1.5 million in 2008 to $1.9 million in 2009 and $3.9 million in 2010, representing 1.8%, 1.4% and 2.0% if our net revenues, respectively. The
period-over-period increase in travel and transportation expenses is generally in line with the growth of our business.

Depreciation and amortization expenses increased from $0.9 million in 2008 to $1.2 million
in 2009 and $1.9 million in 2010, representing 1.1%, 0.9% and 0.9% of our net revenues, respectively. The period-over-period increase in depreciation and amortization expenses is primarily due to an increase in amortization of property and
equipment, including computers and software, furniture and office equipment, motor vehicles and leasehold improvements.

Gross Profit
and Gross Margin

Our gross profit increased from $27.4 million in 2008 to $46.0 million in 2009 to $71.3 million in
2010, or 68.0% and 55.0% growth, respectively. Overall gross margin has steadily increased from 33.2% in 2008 to 34.2% in 2009 and 36.2% in 2010, primarily due to our ability to leverage government support resulting in lower salary and compensation
expenses as a percentage of net revenue, as well as changes in our service mix and improvement in efficiency, partly offset by pricing pressures from some of our large IT services clients.

Operating Expenses

Our total operating expenses increased from
$28.7 million in 2008 to $41.1 million in 2009 and $65.6 million in 2010, or 43.3% and 59.7% growth, respectively. Our operating expenses as a percentage of net revenues over the past three years varied from 34.8% in 2008 to 30.6% in 2009 and 33.3%
in 2010. Our operating expenses for 2008, 2009 and 2010 include share-based compensation expenses of $1.3 million, $2.2 million and $8.4 million and amortization of intangible assets expenses of $2.2 million, $1.9 million, and $1.6 million
respectively.

General and Administrative Expenses

Our general and administrative expenses increased from $16.3 million in 2008 to $26.7 million in 2009 and $44.3 million. Increases in
salary and compensation expenses for general and administrative personnel were the largest component of these increases, increasing from $7.5 million in 2008 to $14.5 million in 2009 and $25.1 million in 2010. This increase in salary and
compensation expenses reflects the continued build out of our corporate infrastructure, general wage increases, and our continued investment in our senior and middle management teams. In addition, our general and administrative expenses increased as
a result of our establishment of regional management functions to better support our front line operations, which commenced in the second half of 2009. Our salary and compensation expenses include $1.3 million, $2.1 million and $8.1 million of
share-based compensation charges in 2008, 2009 and 2010, respectively. Included in the $8.1 million share-based compensation charge in 2010 is a $2.7 million charge related to the issuance of 4.5 million ordinary shares in April and June 2010
to certain key employees.

In addition, rental expenses increased from $2.8 million in 2008 to $3.2 million in 2009 and $4.2
million in 2010, primarily due to our facility expansion. We had a bad debt provision charge in the amount of $6,000, $0.1 million and $2.5 million in 2008, 2009 and 2010, respectively, as a result of periodic assessment of the credit risk of
specific clients. Our general and administrative expenses also increased as a result of additional professional services fees, such as auditing, legal and consulting, as a result of our initial public offering and our becoming a public company
listed on the New York Stock Exchange. As a result of the foregoing, our general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net revenues increased from 19.8% in 2008 to 19.9% in 2009 and 22.5% in 2010.

Selling and Marketing Expenses

Our selling and marketing expenses increased from $11.3 million in 2008 to $13.2 million in 2009 and $17.5 million in 2010. This increase is primarily due to increased salary and compensation expenses for
sales and marketing personnel, primarily our investment in growing our sales operations in Japan, Europe, the United States and in multiple locations in China and related headcount growth. The increase of salary and compensation expense was
partially offset by the decrease of our amortization of intangible assets acquired in acquisitions which decreased from $2.2 million in 2008 to $1.9 million in 2009 and $1.6 million in 2010. Selling and marketing expenses as a percentage
of our net revenues have declined steadily over the past three years from 13.7% in 2008 to 9.8% in 2009 and 8.9% in 2010, primarily as a result of our ability to leverage our sales and marketing platform as our business scales.

Research and Development Expenses

Our research and development expenses increased from $1.1 million in 2008 to $1.2 million in 2009 and $3.9 million in 2010, primarily due to the increase in salaries for our research and development
personnel, as well as significant investments in the development and upgrade of our trust companies core business system, treasury management system, multi-media terminal solution based on Android, data monitoring and management platform and IP
video phone, primarily in 2010. As a result, research and development expenses as a percentage of our net revenues have tended to increase over the past three years from 1.3% in 2008 to 0.9% in 2009 and 1.9% in 2010.

Government Subsidies

We recognized government subsidies as other income of $0.9 million in 2008, $3.0 million in 2009 and $3.3 million in 2010, primarily due to incentives from local government authorities to, among other
things, encourage the development of our industry in general and attract us to open offices in local areas. We also recognized government subsidies as a reduction to the related expenses, primarily to cost of revenues, of $1.7 million, $2.1 million
and $7.7 million, in 2008, 2009 and 2010, respectively, allocated as follows:

In aggregate, government subsidies reflected in our consolidated statement of operations totaled $2.6
million, $5.1 million and $11.0 million, respectively, in 2008, 2009 and 2010.

Interest Expense

Our interest expense in 2008, 2009 and 2010 was $0.4 million, $0.9 million and $5.7 million, respectively. Our interest expense in 2008
and 2009 was mainly related to interest on short-term bank borrowings. Our interest expense in 2010 included imputed interest of $4.4 million accrued for our $38.0 million principal amount of convertible notes and $1.3 million of interest on
short-term bank borrowings. In connection with our initial public offering, which closed in December 2010, $18.0 million of the $38.0 million principal amount of convertible notes, together with accrued interest thereon, were converted into our
ordinary shares.

Income Tax Benefit

Although we had operating income in 2008, 2009 and 2010, we achieved income tax benefit of $0.5 million, $0.8 million and $0.3 million in 2008, 2009 and 2010, respectively. These income tax benefits
reflect the fact that: (i) our major profitable entities in China, where our operations are primarily based, either benefited from reduced income tax rates or were otherwise not subject to income tax in the periods reported, and (ii) the
income tax expenses of the profitable entities were offset by the tax credits of other loss making entities, which deferred tax assets benefit has been recognized.

Net (Loss) Income

As a result of the foregoing, we realized a net
loss of $3.6 million in 2010 compared to a net loss of $3,000 in 2008 and net income of $9.0 million in 2009. Our non-GAAP net income for 2008, 2009 and 2010, which excludes share-based compensation, amortization of intangible assets from
acquisitions, interest expense of convertible notes, changes in fair value of contingent consideration in connection with business combinations, changes in fair value of the convertible notes derivatives, changes in fair value of warrants and gain
on bargain purchase of a business from our U.S. GAAP net income (loss), were $4.7 million, $13.4 million and $19.6 million, respectively. For a reconciliation of our non-GAAP net income to our U.S. GAAP net income (loss), see footnote (4) on
page 5 of this report.

Critical Accounting Policies

We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which requires us to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect: (i) the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities (ii) disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the end of each reporting period and (iii) the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during each reporting period. We evaluate these estimates and assumptions based on
historical experience, knowledge and assessment of current business and other conditions, and expectations regarding the future based on available information and reasonable assumptions, which together form a basis for making judgments about matters
not readily apparent from other sources. Since the use of estimates is an integral component of the financial reporting process, actual results could differ from those estimates. Some of our accounting policies require higher degrees of judgment
than others in their application. When reviewing our financial statements, you should consider (i) our selection of critical accounting policies, (ii) the judgment and other uncertainties affecting the application of such policies and
(iii) the sensitivity of reported results to changes in conditions and assumptions. We consider the policies discussed below to be critical to an understanding of our financial statements as their application places significant demands on the
judgment of our management.

##### Table of Contents

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements and related notes requires us to
make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, net sales and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We have based our estimates on historical experience and on
various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Our
management has discussed the development, selection and disclosure of these estimates with our board of directors. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

An accounting policy is considered to be critical if it requires an accounting estimate to be made based on assumptions about matters
that are highly uncertain at the time the estimate is made, and if different estimates that reasonably could have been used, or changes in the accounting estimates that are reasonably likely to occur periodically, could materially impact the
consolidated financial statements. We believe that the following critical accounting policies are the most sensitive and require more significant estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. You should
read the following descriptions of critical accounting policies, judgments and estimates in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and other disclosures included in this annual report.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents the cost of an acquired business in excess of the fair value of identifiable tangible and intangible net assets purchased. We generally seek the assistance of an independent valuation
firm in determining the fair value of the identifiable intangible net assets of the acquired business.

There are several
methods that can be used to determine the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. For intangible assets, we typically use the income method. This method starts with a forecast of all of the expected future net cash flows associated
with a particular intangible asset. These cash flows are then adjusted to present value by applying an appropriate discount rate that reflects the risk factors associated with the cash flow streams. Some of the more significant estimates and
assumptions inherent in the income method or other methods include the amount and timing of projected future cash flows; the discount rate selected to measure the risks inherent in the future cash flows; and the assessment of the assets
economic life cycle and the competitive trends impacting the asset, including consideration of any technical, legal, regulatory or economic barriers to entry. Determining the useful life of an intangible asset also requires judgment as different
types of intangible assets will have different useful lives.

Goodwill is tested for impairment at least once annually.
Impairment is tested using a two-step process. The first step compares the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the fair value of each reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill is not considered
to be impaired and the second step will not be required. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the second step compares the implied fair value of goodwill to the carrying value of a reporting units goodwill. The
implied fair value of goodwill is determined in a manner similar to accounting for a business combination with the allocation of the assessed fair value determined in the first step to the assets and liabilities of the reporting unit. The excess of
the fair value of the reporting unit over the amounts assigned to the assets and liabilities is the implied fair value of goodwill. An impairment loss is recognized for any excess in the carrying value of goodwill over the implied fair value of
goodwill. We did not recognize goodwill impairment for the periods presented in this annual report.

The following table sets
forth the estimated fair values, carrying values of and goodwill allocated to our reporting units as of December 31, 2010:

Intangible assets
with determinable useful lives are amortized either on a straight-line basis or based on the estimated attrition pattern of the acquired intangible assets in the case of client base.

##### Table of Contents

We evaluate intangible assets with determinable useful life for recoverability whenever
events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Recoverability of long-lived assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the future undiscounted net
cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If these assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying value of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. We did not
recognize impairment for intangible assets for the periods presented in this annual report.

Estimates of fair value result
from a complex series of judgments about future events and uncertainties and rely heavily on estimates and assumptions at a point in time. The judgments made in determining an estimate of fair value can materially impact our results of operations.
The valuations are based on information available as of the impairment review date and are based on expectations and assumptions that have been deemed reasonable by management. Any changes in key assumptions, including unanticipated events and
circumstances, may affect the accuracy or validity of such estimates and could potentially result in an impairment charge.

Revenue
recognition

We have three service lines: (i) IT Services; (ii) Consulting & Solutions; and
(iii) BPO services. Historically, our revenues primarily were generated from IT Services and Consulting & Solutions. Revenue is considered realizable and earned when all of the following criteria are met: persuasive evidence of a sales
arrangement exists; delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; the price is fixed or determinable; and collectability is reasonably assured. The rights to software developed by us on behalf of our clients belong to the clients and we do
not have the option to acquire such rights from our clients. We generate IT Services and Consulting & Solution revenues from either time-and-expense or fixed-price contracts.

Our BPO services primarily consist of providing outsourced operational support services to unburden clients from day-to-day management of
non-core processes to help improve business focus and efficiencies, improved service levels, and ultimately realize cost savings. These contracts have involved the administrative processing of transactions in which we are remunerated on a per
transaction basis or time-and-expense basis. For per transaction basis contracts, we recognize service revenues based on the volume of the transactions processed for the clients and a pre-agreed unit price for each type of process. For
time-and-expense basis contract, we recognize revenues based on the actual service time incurred at negotiated billing rates per unit of time. We have not generated significant revenues from such services historically.

The following table sets forth our net revenues by pricing method for the periods presented:

Time-and-expense contracts

Revenues from time-and-expense contracts are recognized as the related services are rendered assuming all other basic revenue recognition criteria are met. Under time-and-expense contracts, we are
reimbursed for actual hours incurred at negotiated hourly billing rates. Clients may terminate the contracts at any time before the work is completed but are obligated to pay the actual service hours incurred through the termination date at the
contract billing rate.

Fixed-price contracts

Revenues from fixed-price IT service contracts require us to perform services throughout the contractual period, which is generally less than two years. Revenues from this type of arrangement are
generally recognized using the proportional performance method or percentage of completion method based on the proportion of direct labor costs incurred to the budgeted direct labor costs. We believe we can reasonably estimate the service hours to
be incurred on each project.

##### Table of Contents

We recognize cost of revenues for labor and other costs on an actual basis with no deferral
of project costs, including pre-contract costs.

To date, we have not incurred a material loss on any contracts. However, as a
policy, provisions for estimated losses on such engagements will be made during the period in which a loss becomes probable and can be reasonably estimated. Estimated contract costs are determined based on budgets that are reviewed bi-weekly and
revised as necessary.

Accounts receivable

As of December 31, 2008, 2009 and 2010, our total billed and unbilled accounts receivable totaled $28.4 million, $69.1 million and $101.9 million, respectively, net of allowances for doubtful
accounts. Since we generally do not require collateral or other security from our clients, we establish an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon estimates, historical experience and other factors surrounding the credit risk of specific clients.
As of December 31, 2008, 2009 and 2010, the provision made for doubtful accounts was $0.3 million, $0.4 million and $2.3 million, respectively. Our management periodically monitors outstanding receivables and collection status and assesses the
adequacy of allowances for accounts where collection may be in doubt as frequency and amount of client defaults change due to our clients financial condition or general economic conditions. We are focused on improving our cash collection
procedures.

Our accounts receivable balances have been significantly affected by the relatively high concentration of our
client base. In 2008 and 2009 and 2010, our ten largest clients accounted for 49.7%, 56.7% and 54.3%, respectively, of our net revenues, and our largest client accounted for 19.0%, 27.6% and 26.0% of our net accounts receivable as of
December 31, 2008, 2009 and 2010, respectively. Our client base primarily consists of leading companies in Greater China and globally. The timing of invoicing and collection of our accounts receivable under our contracts is impacted by the life
cycle of each project and related payment milestones and heavily depends upon the budget and payment cycles of our large enterprise clients in China.

Our billed receivables represent the amounts billed based on agreed-upon project milestones or payment schedules that remain uncollected, and correspond to the period between billing and collection. As of
December 31, 2008, 2009 and 2010, our billed accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts, totaled $9.5 million, $17.5 million and $26.3 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2010, a substantial portion of our billed
receivables outstanding as of December 31, 2008 and 2009, in each case net of allowance for doubtful accounts, had been collected.

The following table sets forth the aging schedule of our billed receivables, net of allowance for doubtful accounts, as of the dates indicated:

Our unbilled receivables represent the excess of recognized revenues over billings and correspond to the
period between revenue recognition and invoicing. Such period generally arises from: (i) with respect to our time-and-expense contracts, the time during which we reconcile accounts with our clients, of which completing the account
reconciliation process at many of our largest clients may require a significantly longer period than some of our other clients; and (ii) with respect to our fixed-price contracts, the period between revenue recognition and the time when our
billing milestones are reached. This period may vary significantly based on the number of progress billings and the amount of each billing agreed upon. As of December 31, 2008, 2009 and 2010, our unbilled receivables, net of allowance for
doubtful accounts, totaled $18.9 million, $51.6 million and $75.6 million, respectively.

As of December 31,
2010, a substantial portion of our unbilled receivables outstanding as of December 31, 2008, 2009 and 2010, were subsequently billed. Furthermore, as of December 31, 2008 and 2009, and 2010, unbilled receivables which have been booked for
more than 360 days totaled $0.8 million, $0.4 million and $12.5 million, respectively, representing 4.1%, 0.7% and 16.5% of our total unbilled accounts receivables, respectively.

Fair value of our ordinary shares

Prior to the closing of our initial public offering in December 2010, we were a private company with no quoted market prices for our
ordinary shares. We therefore needed to make estimates of the fair value of our ordinary shares at various dates for the purpose of:

(1) Determining the fair value of our shares at the date of acquisition when we had acquired another entity and the consideration given includes our ordinary shares.

(2) Determining the fair value of our ordinary shares at the date of the grant of a share-based compensation award to our employees as
one of the inputs into determining the grant date fair value of the award.

(3) Determining the fair value of our ordinary
shares at the date of issuance of our convertible instruments in the determination of any beneficial conversion feature.

The
following table sets forth the fair value of our ordinary share estimated at different times:

##### Table of Contents

The fair value of the ordinary shares was determined with the assistance of American
Appraisal China Limited, or AA, an independent third party valuation firm. The valuation reports from AA were used as part of our analysis in reaching our conclusion on share values. We reviewed the valuation methodologies used by AA, who took into
consideration of the guidance prescribed by the AICPA Audit and Accounting Practice Aid Valuation of Privately-Held-Company Equity Securities Issued as Compensation, or the Practice Aid, and believe the methodologies used were
appropriate and the valuation results were representative of the fair value of our ordinary shares.

AA used the income
approach/discounted cash flow method as the primary approach and the market approach as a cross-check to derive the fair value of our ordinary shares. The determination of the fair value of our ordinary shares required us to make complex and
subjective judgments regarding our projected financial and operating results, our unique business risks, the liquidity of our shares and our operating history and prospects at the time of each grant.

The major assumptions used in calculating the fair value of ordinary shares included:



| |  |  | Weighted average cost of capital, or WACC. WACCs of 32%, 32%, 29%, 27%, 22.5%, 22.5%, 19%, 17.5% and 17.5% were used for valuation as of
December 15, 2006, April 1, 2007, April 1, 2008, December 20, 2008, September 1, 2009, December 23, 2009, April 18, 2010, June 30, 2010 and August 1, 2010 respectively. The WACCs were determined
based on a consideration of the factors including risk-free rate, comparative industry risk, equity risk premium, company size and non-systematic risk factors. This decrease in WACCs was due to the combined results of (i) the continuous growth
of our business and company size and realization of synergies through our various acquisitions, particularly the acquisition of Beijing Kebao, Akona, Shenzhen Star and MDCL (ii) additional financing obtained through the issuance of preference
shares and (iii) the proximity of our initial public offering. The decrease in WACC used for valuation purposes resulted in an increase in the determined fair value of the ordinary shares.

| |  |  | Comparable companies. In deriving the WACCs, which were used as the discount rates under the income approach, six publicly traded companies in
the software outsourcing industry were selected for reference as our guideline companies for valuation as of 2005 to April 2008. The selected guideline companies included Lionbridge Technologies Inc, Cognizant Technology Solutions Corporation,
Infosys Technologies Limited, Wipro Limited, Tata Consultancy Services and Sino Software Group Limited. For valuation as of December 2008 to 2010, since the trading history of three U.S. listed Chinese software outsourcing companies became long
enough to derive a reliable beta, a measure of systematic risks factor, they were also added as our guideline companies to increase the representativeness of the data. These three newly selected comparable companies were Vanceinfo Technologies Inc.,
Longtop Financial Technologies Limited and Yucheng Technologies Inc.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In deriving the WACCs, which were used
as the discount rates under the income approach, six publicly traded companies in the software outsourcing industry were selected for reference as our guideline companies.



| |  |  | Discount for lack of marketability, or DLOM. AA quantified DLOM using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Under this option pricing method,
the cost of the put option, which can hedge the price change before the privately held shares can be sold, was considered as a basis to determine the DLOM. This option pricing method is one of the methods commonly used in estimating DLOM as it can
take into consideration factors like timing of liquidity events, such as an initial public offering, and estimated volatility of our shares. The farther the valuation date is from an expected liquidity event, the higher the put option value and thus
the higher the implied DLOM. DLOMs of between 18% (as at December 31, 2006) and 10% (as at August 1, 2010) were used in our valuations. The lower the DLOM used for valuation purposes the higher the determined fair value of the ordinary
shares.

The income approach involves applying appropriate discount rates to estimated cash flows that are
based on earnings forecasts. Our revenues and earnings growth rates, as well as major milestones that we had achieved, contributed significantly to the increase in the fair value of our ordinary shares. However, these fair values were inherently
uncertain and highly subjective. The assumptions used in deriving the fair values were consistent with our business plan. These assumptions included: no material changes in the existing political, legal and economic conditions in China; no major
changes in the tax rates applicable to our subsidiaries and consolidated affiliated entities in China; our ability to retain competent management, key personnel and staff to support our ongoing operations; and no material deviation in market
conditions from economic forecasts. These assumptions were inherently uncertain. The risks associated with achieving our forecasts were assessed in selecting the appropriate WACCs, which ranged from 17.5% to 33%.

We used the option-pricing method to allocate enterprise value to preference shares and
ordinary shares, taking into account the guidance prescribed by the Practice Aid. The method treats ordinary shares and preference shares as call options on the enterprises value, with exercise prices based on the liquidation preference of the
preference shares. Under this method, the ordinary shares have value only if the funds available for distribution to shareholders exceed the value of the liquidation preference at the time of a liquidity event.

The option-pricing method involves making estimates of the anticipated timing of a potential liquidity event, such as a sale of our
company or an initial public offering, and estimates of the volatility of our equity securities. The anticipated timing is based on the plans of our board of directors and management. Estimating the volatility of the share price of a privately held
company is complex because there is no readily available market for the shares. We estimated the volatility of our shares to range from 36% to 68.2% based on the historical volatilities of comparable publicly traded companies engaged in similar
lines of business. Had we used different estimates of volatility, the allocations between preferred and ordinary shares would have been different.

The fair value of our ordinary shares increased from $0.12 as of December 15, 2006 and $0.13 as of March 16, 2007 to $0.22 as of April 1, 2008. We believe the increase in the fair value of
our ordinary shares was primarily due to the following:



| |  |  | During this period, we completed the acquisition of the remaining 25% equity interest in Beijing Kebao, the remaining 49% equity interest in iSoftStone
Information System Service Co., Ltd., the operating assets and liabilities of Wuxi Huayang Software Co., Ltd, the business of Shanghai Jiefeng and the business of Akona. These acquisitions increased our scale and geographic presence, expanded our
capabilities, and provided a significant source of revenue growth. In view of this, we decreased the discount rate used for valuation of our ordinary shares from 32% as of December 15, 2006 to 29% as of April 1, 2008, and adjusted our
financial forecast upward to account for the effect of these acquisitions.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The fair value of our ordinary
shares increased from $0.22 as of April 1, 2008 to $0.30 as of December 20, 2008. We believe the increase in fair value of our ordinary shares during the period was primarily due to the fact we experienced continuous improvement in our
operations and financial results. In spite of global financial crisis, we improved our financial results from a $10.3 million net loss in 2007 to breakeven for 2008. In view of this, we decreased the discount rate used for valuation of our ordinary
shares from 29% as of April 1, 2008 to 27% in December 20, 2008.

The fair value of our ordinary shares increased
from $0.30 as of December 20, 2008 to $0.46 as of August 31, 2009 and $0.48 as of December 23, 2009. We believe the increase in fair value of our ordinary shares was preliminary due to the following:



| |  |  | In connection with recovery of the global economy, the demand for our services increased. In 2009, our revenue increased by 63.0%, as compared to 2008.
Our operating margin improved from 0.5% in 2008 to 6.6% in 2009.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | During this period, we completed the acquisition of Shenzhen Star and the IT services business of MDCL. These acquisitions further increased our scale
and geographic presence, expanded our capabilities, and provided a significant source of revenue growth. In view of this, we decreased the discount rate used for valuation of our ordinary shares from 27% as of December 20, 2008 to 22.5% as of
December 31, 2009, and adjusted our financial forecast upward to account for the effect of these acquisitions.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The fair value of our ordinary shares increased from $0.48 as of December 23, 2009 to $0.54 as of April 18, 2010. We believe the increase in the fair value of our ordinary shares was primarily
due to the following:



| |  |  | In February 2010, we established an audit committee to strengthen our internal controls over financial reporting.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | During this period, we made a geographic breakthrough in developing key customers in the U.S., such as a major U.S. telecom operator. In addition, we
also entered into a new framework agreement with a major China-based computer manufacturer and developed more contracts with clients in our area of energy, transportation and public sector industry vertical such as Chinas State Grid.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | We believe that these milestone events of our business development activities, together with the improvement in our internal controls, reduced the
uncertainty about achieving our financial forecasts, lowered the market participants perceived risks of and hence the required rate of return for investing in our securities. As a result, our estimated WACC was lowered from 22.5% in December
2009 to 19% as of April 2010.

in August 2010. The proximity of our initial public offering increased the liquidity of our shares and hence lowered DLOM from 14% as of April 2010 to 10% as of August 2010. In addition, as our company progressed towards our initial public offering,
the perceived risk of investing in our company would tend to be lower than in an earlier stage. In view of the above, our estimated WACC also declined from 19% to 17.5%.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | We continued to bolster our management and finance and accounting functions by appointing Mr. Xiaosong (Jonathan) Zhang, who has U.S. publicly
listed company and extensive financial reporting and auditing experience, as our chief financial officer.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We believe that the increase in the estimated fair value of our ordinary shares from $0.65 as of August 1, 2010 to the initial
public offering price of $1.30 per ordinary share, or $13.00 per ADS, was primarily attributable to the following factors:



| |  |  | Market-Specific Factors:
| | - |  | ------------------------



| |  |  | Reactions to the U.S. Federal Reserve announcements and actions had raised expectations regarding increasing liquidity and dollar devaluation,
contributing to a sharp rise in U.S. and global capital markets since the end of August 2010.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The significant improvement in the overall global economic outlook had translated into strong performance of the U.S. and global capital markets since
August 1, 2010.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | China-based issuers, in particular, have benefited from positive economic outlook and strong investor demand, with (i) China IPOs into the U.S.
having significantly outperformed the broader IPO market since August 1, 2010 and (ii) the trading prices for the companys closest China-based and Indian comparables increasing significantly during the period.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Company-Specific Factors:
| | - |  | -------------------------

Although our then most recent financial forecasts had not materially changed from those used in deriving the August 1, 2010 appraised valuation of $0.65 per ordinary share, we had achieved several
business specific milestones since early August 2010:



| |  |  | In October 2010, we acquired Ascend and in November 2010, we acquired Shanghai Kangshi, expanding our geographic and service capabilities to better
serve global BFSI clients and enhancing our business intelligence service capabilities to address Greater China and Global clients.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | We continued to expand our business operations, most notably establishing a second facility at our sales and delivery center in Wuxi, China in November
2010, providing increased economies of scale and revenue generation opportunities.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | We continued to make substantial progress in the preparation for our initial public offering. Completion of our initial public offering will provide us
additional capital, enhance our ability to access capital markets and expand our business, raise our customer profile and provide our shareholders with greater liquidity.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | In November 2010, we entered into binding conversion agreements with holders of $18 million of the total $38 million aggregate principal amount of
convertible notes, pursuant to which they agreed to convert their notes upon the closing of our initial public offering, which we expected should significantly mitigate public investor uncertainty regarding the number of our shares issuable to
convertible note holders, potential additional related accounting charges and our ability to utilize the proceeds of our initial public offering.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Share-Based Compensation Expenses

Our share-based payment
transactions with employees are measured based on the grant date fair value of the equity instrument we issued and recognized as compensation expense over the requisite service period based on the graded vesting schedule, with a corresponding impact
reflected in additional paid-in capital. Share awards issued to non-employees, such as consultants, are measured at fair value at the earlier of the commitment date or the date the service is completed and recognized over the period the service is
provided.

The risk-free rate for
periods within the expected life of the option is based on the implied yield rates of U.S. dollar denominated bonds issued by the Chinese government as of the valuation dates.

The expected life of options represents the period of time the granted options are expected to be outstanding. As we did not grant options prior to December 15, 2006 and few options have been
exercised, no sufficient historical pattern of exercise could be followed in estimating the expected life. Therefore, the expected life is estimated based on a consideration of factors including contractual term, vesting period and empirical study
on exercise behavior of employee share options. Our employees who received our stocks options are assumed to exhibit similar behavior. As we expected to grow our business with internally generated cash, we did not expect to pay dividends in the
foreseeable future. For the options granted to non-employees, we estimated the expected term as the original contractual term.

The expected volatility was based on the historical volatilities of the same set of comparable publicly traded companies used for
determination of our weighted average cost of capital, or WACC.

We also granted non-vested shares to certain employees under
which the fair value of the ordinary shares as of the grant day was used to determine the share-based compensation expenses.

We recorded share-based compensation expenses of $1.4 million, $2.4 million and $8.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2008,
2009, and 2010, respectively, with the amount of compensation expenses recognized using the straight-line method in any period not less than the portion of the grant date fair value of the awards vested during that period. As of December 31,
2009 and December 31, 2010, we had a total of $5.7 million and $10.9 million respectively, in unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested share options and nonvested shares. The expense is expected to be recognized over a weighted
average period of 2.2 years using the straight-line method.

Income Taxes

In preparing our consolidated financial statements, we must estimate our income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. We
estimate our actual tax exposure and assess temporary differences resulting from different treatment of items for tax and accounting purposes. These differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which we include in our consolidated
balance sheet. We must then assess the likelihood that we will recover our deferred tax assets from future taxable income. If we believe that recovery is not likely, we must establish a valuation allowance. To the extent we establish a valuation
allowance or increase this allowance, we must include an expense within the tax provision in our statement of operations.

##### Table of Contents

Management must exercise significant judgment to determine our provision for income taxes,
our deferred tax assets and liabilities and any valuation allowance recorded against our net deferred tax assets. We base the valuation allowance on our estimates of taxable income in each jurisdiction in which we operate and the period over which
our deferred tax assets will be recoverable. If actual results differ from these estimates or we adjust these estimates in future periods, we may need to establish an additional valuation allowance, which could materially impact our financial
position and results of operations.

U.S. GAAP requires that an entity recognize the impact of an uncertain income tax
position on the income tax return at the largest amount that is more likely than not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant tax authority. If we ultimately determine that payment of these liabilities will be unnecessary, we will reverse the
liability and recognize a tax benefit during that period. Conversely, we record additional tax charges in a period in which we determine that a recorded tax liability is less than the expected ultimate assessment. We did not recognize any
significant unrecognized tax benefits during the periods presented in this annual report.

Uncertainties exist with respect to
the application of the Enterprise Income Tax Law of PRC and its implementing rules to our operations, specifically with respect to our tax residency status. The Enterprise Income Tax Law specifies that legal entities organized outside of the PRC
will be considered residents for PRC income tax purposes if their de facto management bodies are located within the PRC. The Enterprise Income Tax Laws implementation rules define the term de facto management bodies as
establishments that carry out substantial and overall management and control over the manufacturing and business operations, personnel, accounting, properties, etc. of an enterprise.

Despite the uncertainties resulting from limited PRC tax guidance on the issue, we do not believe that our legal entities organized
outside of the PRC constitute residents under the Enterprise Income Tax Law. If one or more of our legal entities organized outside of the PRC were characterized as PRC tax residents, the impact would adversely affect our results of operations. See
Item 3.D. Key InformationRisk FactorsRisk Related to Doing Business in ChinaWe may be classified as a resident enterprise for PRC enterprise income tax purposes; such classification could result in unfavorable tax
consequences to us and our non-PRC shareholders.

Government Subsidies

Government subsidies are recorded as receivables when the approval documents are obtained from the local government authorities and we
have the right to receive the subsidies. Subsidies intended to compensate for specific expenditure are recognized in our statement of operations as deductions to the cost of revenues and related expenses when the receivable is booked. Subsidies not
intended to compensate for specific expenditures are recognized as other operating income when booked.

B. Liquidity and
Capital Resources

Our operations and our growth have primarily been financed by cash collected from customers, issuances
of our preference shares and convertible notes and short-term bank borrowings, as well as by our initial public offering in December 2010. As of December 31, 2010, $37.3 million was outstanding under our short-term bank borrowings. Our
short-term bank borrowings do not contain any material financial covenants. The annual interest rates on these short-term bank borrowings range from 5.31% to 5.84% and are fixed at rates published by the Peoples Bank of China or at a premium
to such benchmark rates. The maturity dates range from April 29, 2011 to November 19, 2011. Out of the $37.3 million bank borrowings, $26.7 million were without any collateral, $4.5 million were guaranteed by Wuxi Taihu Creative Industry
Investment and Development Co., Ltd., an unrelated third party, and the remaining $6.1 million were guaranteed by Beijing Zhongguancun Sci-Tech Guaranty Co., Ltd., an unrelated third party, with reverse guarantee provided by certain of our directors
and officers. As described below under Financing Activities, proceeds received from the issuance of preference shares and convertible notes were primarily used for financing our operating activities, making purchase of property and
equipment and as consideration for various acquisitions, and proceeds from our short-term borrowings incurred within one year were primarily used for financing our operations.

As of December 31, 2010, we had $181.1 million in cash, compared to $55.1 million as of December 31, 2009 and $33.8 million as of December 31, 2008. This increase is primarily due
to the $125.1 million in proceeds we received from our initial public offering. Our cash consists primarily of cash on hand and highly liquid investments. We believe that our current cash and anticipated cash flow from operations will be sufficient
to meet our anticipated cash needs, including our cash needs for working capital and capital expenditures, for at least the next 12 months. We may, however, require additional cash due to changing business conditions or other future
developments, including any investments or acquisitions we may decide to pursue.

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities in 2010 was $1.5 million, as compared to net loss of $3.6 million. The principal working capital items accounting for the difference between our net cash used in
operating activities and our net loss were increases in the balances of accounts receivable and prepaid expenses and other current assets, which were partially offset by the increase of accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current
liabilities. Our accounts receivable increased by $29.6 million, which was in line with the increase of our net revenues. Our prepaid expenses and other current assets increased by $3.2 million, which was mainly due to increase of deferred costs,
rental deposits and project deposits. Our accounts payable increased by $4.9 million, which was in line with the increase of our subcontracting costs. Our accrued expenses and other current liabilities increased by $3.0 million, which was mainly due
to the increase of employee payroll and welfare payable. The other principal non-cash items accounting for the difference between our net cash used in operating activities and our net loss were depreciation and intangible assets amortization
expenses totaling $6.6 million, and share-based compensation of $8.5 million.

Net cash used in operating activities in 2009
was $14.2 million, as compared to net income of $9.0 million. The principal working capital items accounting for the difference between our net cash used in operating activities and our net income were the increase of the balances of accounts
receivable and prepaid expenses and other current assets, which were partially offset by the increase of accounts payable, accrued expenses, other current liabilities and deferred revenue. Our accounts receivable and deferred revenue increased by
$39.7 million and $1.6 million, respectively, which were in line with the increase of our net revenues. Our prepaid expenses and other current assets increased by $2.3 million, which was mainly due to increase of government subsidy receivables and
project deposits. Our accounts payable increased by $4.2 million, which was in line with the increase of subcontracting costs. Our accrued expenses and other current liabilities increased by $6.0 million, which was mainly due to increase of employee
payroll and welfare payable. The other principal non-cash items accounting for the difference between our net cash used in operating activities and our net income were depreciation and intangible assets amortization expenses totaling $5.2 million,
and share-based compensation of $2.4 million.

Net cash used in operating activities in 2008 was $1.6 million, as compared to
a net loss of $3,000. The principal working capital items accounting for the difference between our net cash used in operating activities and our net loss were the increase of the balances of accounts receivable, which were partially offset by the
increase of accrued expenses, other current liabilities and deferred revenue. Our accounts receivable and deferred revenue increased by $12.9 million and $2.0 million, respectively, which was in line with the increase of our net revenues. Our
accrued expenses and other current liabilities increased by $3.1 million, which was mainly due to increase of employee payroll and welfare payable. The other principal non-cash items accounting for the difference between our net cash used in
operating activities and our net income were depreciation and intangible assets amortization expenses totaling $4.8 million, and share-based compensation of $1.4 million.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities in 2008 was $5.5 million, which was primarily attributable to $2.2 million in property and
equipment purchase and $3.3 million as part of the consideration paid for the acquisition of Akona and Shanghai Jiefeng.

Financing
Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities in 2010 was $139.8 million, which primarily reflected $125.1
million in proceeds from our initial public offering, $40.8 million of proceeds from short-term borrowings and $8.6 million of proceeds from issuance of convertible notes, offset by $32.5 million of repayment of short-term borrowings.

Net cash provided by financing activities in 2009 was $42.6 million, which primarily reflected $28.8 million of proceeds from
issuance of convertible notes and $30.7 million of proceeds from short term borrowings, which was partially offset by $8.8 million of repayment of short term borrowings and $8.8 million of payment of the deferred consideration primarily in
connection with the acquisition of Akona and Shanghai Jiefeng.

primarily attributable to $24.5 million of net proceeds from issuance of series B preference shares in connection with the exercise of warrants and $5.8 million of proceeds from short term borrowings, which was offset by $2.7 million of
repayment of short term borrowings and $1.0 million of payment of deferred consideration primarily in connection with the acquisition of Guangzhou Ruandong Zhiruan.

| | -- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | b. | In connection with acquisition of Ascend in 2010, we agreed to pay contingent consideration up to $0.3 million in cash, primarily based on the performance of the
acquired business for the 12 months following the date of acquisition, which is currently to be determined. Out of the contingent consideration of up to $0.3 million, $0.2 million will be paid in the fourth quarter of 2011 and $0.1 million will be

with the maximum number of shares issuable being 970,215 based on $1.2 million and a predetermined per share price of $1.235 (being 95% of our $1.30 per share equivalent initial offering price). A portion of these shares are subject to repurchase

In connection with the acquisition of Wuxi Huayang Software Co., Ltd. in 2007, we are
obligated to pay additional performance-based cash consideration for the period from December 31, 2009 to June 30, 2011 according to new settlement between us and the selling shareholders, which is currently determined to be
$45,000.

In January 2011, we acquired iHealthStone. The total cash consideration is $0.3 million, of which $258,082 was
paid in April 2011.

In April 2011, we agreed to acquire a 19.9% equity interest in MDCL from certain existing shareholders for
a consideration of approximately $4.8 million (based on a preliminary assessment and subject to adjustment based on actual net asset value of MDCL). We also acquired a call option to acquire from those shareholders an additional 32.6% equity
interest in MDCL during a 12-month period following the initial acquisition at a purchase price based on the net asset value of MDCL as of specified periods depending on when the call option is exercised. If we exercise this call right, then the
remaining MDCL shareholder has an option to put the remaining 47.5% of MDCLs equity to us under certain circumstances at a purchase price based on the net asset value of MDCL as of specified periods depending on when the put option is
exercised. The transaction is expected to close in the second quarter of 2011.



|(2) | In March 2011, the holders of the remaining $20.0 million principal amount of convertible notes converted all their convertible notes plus accrued interest thereon into
20,406,720 of our ordinary shares.

administrator of our incentive plans and has broad authority to interpret the plan provisions and make all required determinations under the plan, including authority to make required proportionate adjustments to outstanding awards upon the
occurrence of certain corporate events such as reorganizations, mergers and stock splits. Awards under our incentive plans are generally non-transferable. However, the plan administrator may establish procedures for the transfer of awards to other
persons or entities, provided that such transfers comply with applicable securities laws and, with limited exceptions, are not made for value.

Pre-IPO Plans.As of April 30, 2011, a total of 36,779,017 ordinary shares are subject to outstanding options granted under our 2008 Share Incentive Plan, or the 2008 Plan, adopted in March 2008,
and a total of 46,086,167 ordinary shares are subject to outstanding options granted under our 2009 Share Incentive Plan, or the 2009 Plan, adopted in December 2009.

Options granted under our incentive plans generally do not vest unless the grantee remains under our employment or in service with us on the given vesting date. Such options generally vest over a period
of four years, with 25% vesting on a yearly basis, starting from the first anniversary of the vesting commencement date as indicated in the relevant option award agreement. Our plan administrator may accelerate the vesting to permit immediate
exercise of options granted to a grantee. The number of options that may vest in any given year for certain grantees under our 2009 Plan is also subject to certain performance requirements established and evaluated by our human resources department.

The options granted under our incentive plans that were outstanding on the date of our
initial public offering will expire on the earliest of (i) the tenth anniversary of the grant date, (ii) the date that is 12 months after the termination date if the grantees service terminates for death, disability, or retirement,
or (iii) the 30th day after the termination date if the grantees service terminates for any reason, other than death, disability, retirement or cause. If a grantees service terminates for cause, all the options granted to the
grantee under our incentive plans will immediately be forfeited and expire.

2010 Performance Incentive Plan. In
November 2010, we adopted our 2010 Performance Incentive Plan, or the 2010 Plan. We stopped granting options or any other awards under the 2008 Plan and 2009 Plan upon the adoption of the 2010 Plan. The maximum number of ordinary shares that may be
issued pursuant to all awards under the 2010 Plan is 7,500,000, plus the number of any shares subject to share options granted under the 2008 Plan or 2009 Plan and outstanding on the date of the adoption of the 2010 Plan, which expire, or for any
reason are cancelled or terminated, after the date of the adoption of the 2010 Plan without being exercised, plus an annual increase on January 1 of each calendar year beginning in 2011 equal to the lesser of (i) two and one-half percent
(2.5%) of the total number of our ordinary shares issued and outstanding on December 31 of the immediately preceding calendar year, (ii) 20,000,000 ordinary shares or (iii) such number of ordinary shares as may be established by
our board of directors. As of April 30, 2011, the maximum number of ordinary shares that may be issued pursuant to all awards under the 2010 Plan is 21,099,096 and options to purchase 492,500 ordinary shares and awards with respect to 665,999
restricted shares are outstanding under the 2010 Plan.

Awards under the 2010 Plan may be in the form of incentive or
nonqualified stock options, share appreciation rights, share bonuses, restricted shares, share units, performance shares, phantom shares, dividend equivalents and other forms of awards including cash awards. Nonqualified and incentive stock options
may not be granted at prices below the fair market value of our ordinary shares on the date of grant. Incentive stock options must have an exercise price that is at least equal to the fair market value of our common stock, or 110% of fair market
value of our ordinary shares or incentive stock option grants to any 10% owner of our ordinary shares, on the date of grant. These and other awards may also be issued solely or in part for services. Awards are generally paid in cash or our ordinary
shares. The plan administrator may also provide for the repricing of share options or share appreciation rights granted under the 2010 Plan (by amendment, cancellation and regrant, exchange or other means) without shareholder approval.

Generally, and subject to limited exceptions set forth in the 2010 Plan, if we dissolve or undergo certain corporate transactions such as
a merger, business combination, consolidation, or other reorganization; exchange of our ordinary share; a sale of substantially all of our assets; or any other event in which we are not the surviving entity, all awards then-outstanding under the
2010 Plan will become fully vested or paid, as applicable, and will terminate or be terminated in such circumstances, unless the plan administrator provides for the assumption, substitution or other continuation of the award. The plan administrator
also has the discretion to establish other change in control provisions with respect to awards granted under the 2010 Plan. For example, the administrator could provide for the acceleration of vesting or payment of an award in connection with a
corporate event that is not described above and provide that any such acceleration shall be automatic upon the occurrence of any such event.

Our board of directors may amend or terminate the 2010 Plan at any time, but no such action will affect any outstanding award in any manner materially adverse to a participant without the consent of the
participant. Plan amendments will be submitted to shareholders for their approval as required by applicable law or any applicable listing agency. The 2010 Plan is not exclusive, and our board of directors and compensation committee may grant share
and performance incentives or other compensation, in shares or cash, under other plans or authority. The plan will terminate on April 13, 2020. However, the plan administrator will retain its authority until all outstanding awards are exercised
or terminated. The maximum term of options, share appreciation rights and other rights to acquire our ordinary shares under the plan is ten years after the initial date of the award.

Employment Agreements

We have entered or will enter into employment
agreements with each of our executive officers. The terms of these agreements are or will be substantially similar to each other, with terms ranging from one to two years and providing that the agreements are terminable for cause at any time. A
senior executive officer may terminate his or her employment at any time by 30-day prior written notice. Each senior executive officer is entitled to certain benefits upon termination, including a severance payment equal to a certain specified
number of months of his or her salary if we terminate his or her employment without cause. Each executive officer has agreed to hold in strict confidence and not to use, except for the benefit of our company, any proprietary information, technical
data, trade secrets and know-how of our company or the confidential or proprietary information of any third party, including our subsidiaries and our clients, received by our company. Each of these executive officers has also agreed not to engage in
any other employment, occupation, consulting or other business activity directly related to the business in which we are involved.

C. Board Practices

Duties of Directors

Under Cayman Islands law, our directors have a duty to
act honestly, in good faith and with a view to our best interests. Our directors also have a duty to exercise the care, diligence and skills that a reasonably prudent person would exercise in comparable circumstances. In fulfilling their duty of
care to us, our directors must ensure compliance with our memorandum and articles of association, as amended and restated from time to time. Under some circumstances, a shareholder has the right to seek damages if a duty owed by our directors is
breached.

Our board of directors has all the powers necessary for managing, and for directing and supervising, our business
affairs. The functions and powers of our board of directors include, among others:



| |  |  | convening shareholders annual general meetings and reporting its work to shareholders at such meetings;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | declaring dividends and distributions;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------



| |  |  | appointing officers and determining the term of office of the officers;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | exercising the borrowing powers of our company and mortgaging the property of our company;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | determining our business plans and investment proposals;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | formulating our major acquisition and disposition plans, and plans for merger, division or dissolution; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | exercising any other powers conferred by the shareholders meetings or under our articles of association.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Terms of Directors and Executive Officers

Our directors are not subject to a term of office (unless a term is set by our board and approved by our shareholders) and hold office until such time as they resign or are removed from office by special
resolution of at least two-thirds of the shareholders or by a vote of at least two-thirds of our board of directors. A director will be removed from office automatically if, among other things, the director becomes bankrupt or makes any arrangement
or composition with his creditors, or dies or is found by our company to be or to have become of unsound mind. The board (or a committee thereof) has the power to adopt policies governing the term of office of our directors subject to approval by
our shareholders.

All of our executive officers are appointed by and serve at the discretion of our board of directors.

Committees of the Board of Directors

To enhance our corporate governance, we have restructured our board of directors and the three committees under the board of directors prior to the closing of our initial public offering: the audit
committee, the nominating and corporate governance committee and the compensation committee. We have adopted a charter for each of these committees. The committees have the following functions and members.

Audit Committee

Our
audit committee consists of Al-Noor Gulamali Abdulla Ramji and Tom Manning. Mr. Manning is the chairman of our audit committee. We do not currently have an audit committee member that meets the criteria of an audit committee financial
expert as set forth under the applicable rules of the SEC. Our board of directors has an ongoing search to identify a third audit committee member that meets such criteria prior to the first anniversary of our initial public offering. Our board of
directors has determined that each of Mr. Ramji and Mr. Manning satisfies the independence requirements within the meaning of Section 303A of the Corporate Governance Rules of the NYSE and satisfies the
independence requirements under Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act. The audit committee oversees our accounting and financial reporting processes and the audits of the financial statements of our company.

The audit committee is responsible for, among other things:



| |  |  | appointing the independent auditor;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------



| |  |  | pre-approving all auditing and non-auditing services permitted to be performed by the independent auditor;

Compensation Committee

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

Our nominating and corporate governance committee consists of Al-Noor Gulamali Abdulla Ramji, Tianwen Liu and Tom Manning. Mr. Ramji
is the chairman of our nominating and corporate governance committee. Our board of directors has determined that each of Mr. Ramji and Mr. Manning satisfies the independence standards of Section 303A of the Corporate
Governance Rules of the NYSE.

Our nominating and corporate governance committee is responsible for, among other things:



| |  |  | recommending to the board of directors and periodically reviewing criteria for the selection of new directors;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | identifying and recommending to the board of directors qualified individuals to become new directors as needed;

| |  |  | handling such other matters that are specifically delegated to the nominating and corporate governance committee by our board of directors from time to

| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Corporate Governance

Our board of directors has adopted a code of ethics, which is applicable to our senior executive and financial officers. In addition, our board of directors has adopted a code of conduct, which is
applicable to all of our directors, officers, employees and advisors. We have made our code of ethics and our code of conduct publicly available on our website. In addition, our board of directors has adopted a set of corporate governance
guidelines. The guidelines reflect certain guiding principles with respect to our boards structure, procedures and committees. The guidelines are not intended to change or interpret any law, or our memorandum and articles of association, as
amended from time to time. The code of ethics, code of conduct and corporate governance guidelines all became effective upon the closing of our initial public offering.

Interested Transactions

Subject to any separate requirement for audit
committee approval under applicable law or the applicable rules of the NYSE, and unless disqualified by the chairman of the relevant board meeting, a director may vote in respect of any contract or transaction in which he is interested, provided
that the nature of the interest of any director in such contract or transaction shall be disclosed by him or her at or prior to its consideration and any vote on that matter. A general notice or disclosure to the directors or otherwise contained in
the minutes of a meeting or a written resolution of the directors or any committee of directors that a director is a shareholder of any specified firm or company and is to be regarded as interested in any transaction with such firm or company will
be sufficient disclosure, and, after such general notice, it will not be necessary to give special notice relating to any particular transaction.

D. Employees

Our ability to rapidly recruit, train, develop and retain
employees is critical to the success of our business. We are committed to being a highly regarded employer within our industry in China and we have dedicated executives focused solely on human capital and leadership development. We believe our
employees deliver services on par with widely accepted quality standards in the global IT outsourcing industry. We had 4,205, 7,676 and 9,285 employees as of December 31, 2008, 2009 and 2010, respectively.

Recruiting and Retention. We have built our talent pool by recruiting students from leading universities in China and hiring
highly qualified project leaders and middle-level managers from the market. We are committed to maintaining stringent recruitment standards to continue to hire highly qualified candidates, minimize attrition and increase the chances for the
development of long-term careers for our employees. We offer competitive remuneration and benefits, a challenging work environment, ongoing skill development initiatives, and attractive career advancement opportunities. We continually assess and
refine our selection process based on performance tracking of past recruits. We also maintain a database of experienced potential lateral hires from which we have recruited a large number of middle to senior level staff over the years. Our attrition
rates were 17.7%, 12.8% and 19.8% in 2008, 2009 and 2010, respectively.

Training and Development. We have training, continuing education and career
development programs designed to ensure our technology and managerial personnel enhance their skill-sets in alignment with their respective roles. We have developed and promoted significant numbers of middle to senior level technical and management
personnel from within our company. We continually review our competency model, which is based on the core values of our company culture, to determine the needs of capability development for technology and managerial personnel, while providing
cross-functional assignments and exposure to internal strategic initiatives to prepare them for their next job role. As part of our systematic work force management practices, we conduct quarterly reviews and terminate employees that do not meet the
quality levels required by our development programs and ultimately our clients.

We provide ongoing training for both new
college graduates and experienced staff, including technical training and certification coursework, as well as language and management training. In 2008, we established dedicated training centers alongside our sales and delivery centers in Wuxi and
Tianjin, and we have since added a training center in Guangzhou. We expect to open another training center in Dalian in 2011. These training centers are supported by a combination of government subsidies, tuition from the students and funds from us.
The students gain hands-on experience in these programs, and the top students often obtain employment with us after graduation.

In 2009, we helped establish and fund a training institute in cooperation with the Wuxi City government, the iCarnegie-iSoftStone
training institute, in which we have an equity investment. The iCarnegie-iSoftStone training institute utilizes the technical curriculum and professional certifications developed and maintained by iCarnegie Inc., the for-profit education arm of
Carnegie Mellon University. The institute conducts certificate programs to train students in IT development, software development and other IT services skills, in English, which enables them to immediately begin serving clients. It has the capacity
to train up to 10,000 students annually. The iCarnegie-iSoftStone training institute had 22 full-time and 8 part-time tutors as of March 31, 2011 and trained approximately 3,300 students in 2010. In January 2011, we replaced our training center in
Wuxi with the iCarnegie-iSoftStone training institute (which will perform all our training functions in Wuxi going forward). We believe that the iCarnegie-iSoftStone training institute and our other training centers will help to create a sustainable
and long-term source of high-quality candidates for positions with our company.

We are particularly focused on development of
middle management and leadership. Our Top 300 leadership development program is focused on systematically identifying and nurturing the development of middle and senior management. Using this program, we cultivate talent through formal
leadership training, evaluation, development and promotion.

E. Share Ownership

The following table sets forth information with respect to the beneficial ownership of our ordinary shares, as of April 30, 2011, the
latest practicable date, by:



| |  |  | each of our directors and executive officers;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------



| |  |  | our directors and executive officers as a group; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | each person known to us to own more than 5.0% of our ordinary shares.

Investors Rights Agreement and Right of First Refusal and Co-Sale Agreement

In connection with our convertible notes private placements, we, the holders of our preference shares and convertible notes, and Tianwen Liu and Yong Feng and their personal holding companies Tekventure
Limited and United Innovation (China) Limited entered into a Second Amended and Restated Investors Rights Agreement on December 23, 2009, which was subsequently amended on April 22, 2010 and November 26, 2010. Pursuant to this
Investors Rights Agreement, we have granted certain registration rights to holders of our registrable securities. Registrable securities include (1) our ordinary shares issuable or issued upon conversion of our preference shares or
convertible notes, (2) any other ordinary shares owned or acquired by any holders of our preference shares or convertible notes, excluding, among others, shares sold in a public offering, and (3) any of our ordinary shares issued as a
dividend or other distribution with respect to, in exchange for, or in replacement of, the shares referenced in (1) and (2) above.

Under the terms of the Investors Rights Agreement, from the date that is six months after the closing of our initial public offering, (i) holders of 30% or more of our then outstanding
registrable securities or (ii) holders of 45% or more of the registrable securities with respect to series A preference shares, series B preference shares or convertible notes, each separately as a class, may require us to effect a registration
under the Securities Act for the sale of their registrable securities. We are obliged to effect up to two such demand registrations with respect to the series A preference shares, up to two with respect to the series B preference shares and one with
respect to the convertible notes. We have the right to defer filing the registration statement for a period of no more than 90 days if our board of directors in good faith determines that filing of such registration will be materially detrimental to
us and our shareholders, but we can not utilize this right more than once in any twelve-month period, nor can we file any registration statement pertaining to the public offering of any securities of us during such 90 day period.

Holders of registrable securities also have piggyback registration rights, pursuant to which they may require us to register
all or any part of the registrable securities then held by such holders when we file any registration statements for purposes of effecting a public offering of our securities.

Holders of registrable securities may also require us to effect a registration on Form S-3 or Form F-3 and any related qualification or compliance, as applicable, for a public offering of all or a part of
their registrable securities so long as we are entitled to use Form S-3 or Form F-3 for such offering. However, we are not obliged to effect any such registration when (1) the aggregate price to the public of such offering is less than
$1,000,000, or (2) we have already effected a registration other than the registration from which the registrable securities of such holders have been excluded within the six-month period preceding the date of such request. We have the right to
defer such filing for a period of no more than 90 days if our board of directors in good faith determines that filing of such registration will be materially detrimental to us and our shareholders, but we can not utilize this right more than once
during any twelve-month period, nor can we file any registration statement pertaining to the public offering of any securities of us during such 90 days period.

##### Table of Contents

We are generally required to pay all expenses relating to any demand, piggyback or F-3 or

We have appended consolidated financial statements filed as part of this
annual report. See Item 18. Financial Statements.

Legal Proceedings

We are subject to legal proceedings, investigations and claims incidental to the conduct of our business from time to time. We are not
currently a party to, nor are we aware of, any legal proceeding, investigation or claim which, in the opinion of our management, is likely to have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

Dividend Policy

We have
never declared or paid dividends, nor do we have any present plan to pay any cash dividends on our ordinary shares in the foreseeable future. We currently intend to retain most, if not all, of our available funds and any future earnings to operate
and expand our business.

Cash dividends, if any, will be at the discretion of our board of directors, and will depend upon
our future results of operations and earnings, capital requirements and surplus, general financial conditions, shareholders interests, contractual restrictions and other factors our board of directors may deem relevant. We can pay dividends
only out of profits or other distributable reserves. Cash dividends on our ordinary shares will be paid in U.S. dollars.

We
are a holding company incorporated in the Cayman Islands. In order to pay dividends, if any, to our shareholders, we rely on dividends from our PRC subsidiaries. Each of our PRC subsidiaries may pay dividends only out of its accumulated
distributable profits, if any, determined in accordance with its articles of association and the accounting standards and regulations in the PRC. The results of operations reflected in our financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP
differ from those reflected in the statutory financial statements of our PRC subsidiaries. Moreover, pursuant to applicable PRC laws and regulations, 10% of the after-tax profits of each of our PRC subsidiaries are required to be set aside in a
statutory surplus reserve fund each year until the reserve balance reaches 50% of such PRC subsidiarys registered capital. Allocations to these statutory reserves may only be used for specific purposes and are not distributable to us in the
form of loans, advances or cash dividends. Furthermore, if any of our PRC subsidiaries incurs debt on its own behalf in the future, the instruments governing the debt may restrict its ability to pay dividends or make other payments to us.

##### Table of Contents

The Enterprise Income Tax Law and its implementing rules provide that an income tax rate of
10% will be applicable to dividends payable to non-PRC resident enterprise shareholders to the extent such dividends are derived from sources within the PRC. If we are determined to be a PRC resident enterprise by the PRC tax authorities, it is
unclear whether dividends declared and distributed by us to our non-PRC resident enterprise shareholders will be deemed to be derived from sources within the PRC under the Enterprise Income Tax Law and its implementing rules and therefore be subject
to the 10% withholding tax (or potentially a 20% income tax withholding will be imposed on dividends received from us by our non-PRC individual shareholders under the applicable PRC tax laws). See Item 10.E. Additional
InformationTaxationPeoples Republic of China Taxation.

If we pay any dividends, we will pay our ADS
holders to the same extent as holders of our ordinary shares, subject to the terms of the deposit agreement, including the fees and expenses payable thereunder. See Item 12.D. American Depositary Shares.

B. Significant Changes

Except as disclosed elsewhere in this annual report, we have not experienced any significant changes since the date of our audited
financial statements included in this report.

D. Exchange Controls

Regulations on Foreign Currency Exchange

Under the PRC Foreign Exchange Administrative Regulations and various rules and regulations promulgated by SAFE, the Renminbi is freely
convertible under current account transactions, including the distribution of dividends, interest payments, trade and service-related foreign exchange transactions. For foreign exchange transactions under capital account items, such as making
inbound and outbound direct investment, borrowing foreign loans, repatriating investment and investment in securities outside China, prior approval of or registration with SAFE or its local branches is required.

Foreign-invested enterprises may only buy, sell and remit foreign currencies at those banks authorized to conduct foreign exchange
business after providing valid commercial documents and, in the case of capital account transactions, after obtaining approval from SAFE or its local branches. Capital investments by foreign-invested enterprises outside of China are also subject to
limitations, which include approvals by the Ministry of Commerce, SAFE and the National Development and Reform Commission or their local counterparts.

Regulation of Foreign Exchange in Certain Onshore and Offshore Transactions

In 2005, SAFE issued the Notice on Relevant Issues Concerning Foreign Exchange Administration for PRC Residents to Engage in Financing and Return Investments via Overseas Special Purpose Vehicles, or
Circular 75. Circular 75 requires PRC residents, including both legal persons and natural persons, to register with an appropriate local SAFE branch before establishing or controlling any company outside of China, referred to as an offshore
special purpose company, for the purpose of acquiring any assets of or equity interest in PRC companies and raising fund from overseas. When a PRC resident contributes the assets or equity interests it holds in a PRC company into the offshore
special purpose company, or engages in overseas financing after contributing such assets or equity interests to the offshore special purpose company, such PRC resident must modify its SAFE registration in light of its interest in the offshore
special purpose company and any change thereof. In addition, any PRC resident that is the shareholder of an offshore special purpose company is required to amend its SAFE registration with the local SAFE branch with respect to that offshore special
purpose company in connection with any increase or decrease of capital, transfer of shares, merger, division, long-term equity investment or creation of any security interest. If these shareholders fail to comply, the PRC subsidiaries of the
offshore special purpose company may be prohibited from distributing their profits and proceeds from any reduction in capital, share transfer or liquidation to their offshore parent company and the offshore parent company may be restricted in its
ability to contribute additional capital into its PRC subsidiaries. Moreover, failure to comply with the above SAFE registration requirements could result in liability under PRC laws for evasion of foreign exchange restrictions.

Dividend Distributions

8.A. Financial Information  Dividend Policy in connection with our policy regarding dividend distributions. See also Item 3.D. Key Information  Risk Factors  Risks Relating to Our ADS  You may not receive

##### Table of Contents

E. Taxation

The following is a general summary of the material Cayman Islands, U.S. federal and Peoples Republic of China income tax consequences relevant to an investment in our ADSs and ordinary shares.
The discussion is not intended to be, nor should it be construed as, legal or tax advice to any particular prospective purchaser or current holders of our ADSs. The discussion is based on laws and relevant interpretations thereof in effect as of the
date of this annual report, all of which are subject to change or different interpretations, possibly with retroactive effect. The discussion does not address United States state or local tax laws, or tax laws of jurisdictions other than the Cayman
Islands, the Peoples Republic of China and the United States.

Cayman Islands Taxation

The Cayman Islands currently levies no taxes on individuals or corporations based upon profits, income, gains or appreciations and there
is no taxation in the nature of inheritance tax or estate duty or withholding tax applicable to us or to any holder of ADSs or ordinary shares. There are no other taxes likely to be material to us levied by the Government of the Cayman Islands
except for stamp duties which may be applicable on instruments executed in, or after execution brought within the jurisdiction of the Cayman Islands. No stamp duty is payable in the Cayman Islands on transfers of shares of Cayman Islands companies
except those which hold interests in land in the Cayman Islands. The Cayman Islands is not party to any double tax treaties. There are no exchange control regulations or currency restrictions in the Cayman Islands.

Pursuant to Section 6 of the Tax Concessions Law (1999 Revision) of the Cayman Islands, we have obtained an undertaking from the
Governor-in-Cabinet:



| |  |  | that no law which is enacted in the Cayman Islands imposing any tax to be levied on profits or income or gains or appreciations shall apply to
iSoftStone Holdings Limited or its operations; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | that the aforesaid tax or any tax in the nature of estate duty or inheritance tax shall not be payable on the shares, debentures or other obligations
of iSoftStone Holdings Limited.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The undertaking for iSoftStone Holdings Limited is for a period of twenty
years from August 24, 2010.

Peoples Republic of China Taxation

China promulgated a new Enterprise Income Tax Law effective on January 1, 2008. The Enterprise Income Tax Law created a new
resident enterprise classification which if applied could treat our Cayman Islands holding company in a manner similar to a Chinese enterprise for enterprise income tax purposes. While we do not currently consider our Cayman Islands
holding company to be a PRC resident enterprise, there is a risk that the PRC tax authorities may deem our company as a PRC resident enterprise. If the PRC tax authorities determine that our Cayman Islands holding company is
a resident enterprise for PRC enterprise income tax purposes, a 10% or potentially 20% withholding tax may be imposed on dividends we pay to our non-PRC enterprise or individual shareholders respectively and with respect to gains derived
by our non-PRC shareholders from transferring our shares or ADSs. Currently, neither we nor our PRC counsel can be certain as to whether our Cayman Islands holding company will be regarded as a PRC resident enterprise or not. In
addition, it is unclear whether, if our Cayman Islands holding company is considered a PRC resident enterprise, holders of our shares or ADSs would be able to claim the benefit of income tax treaties or agreements entered into between
China and other jurisdictions. See Item 3.D. Key Information  Risk Factors  Risks Related to Doing Business in ChinaWe may be classified as a resident enterprise for PRC enterprise income tax purposes; such
classification could result in unfavorable tax consequences to us and our non-PRC shareholders.

United States Federal Income
Taxation

This discussion describes the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and
disposition of our ADSs or ordinary shares. This discussion does not address any aspect of U.S. federal gift or estate tax, or the state, local or non-U.S. tax consequences of an investment in our ADSs or ordinary shares. This discussion applies to
U.S. Holders (as defined below) who beneficially own our ADSs or ordinary shares as capital assets for U.S. federal income tax purposes. This discussion does not apply to you if you are a member of a class of holders subject to special rules, such
as:



| |  |  | dealers in securities or currencies;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------



| |  |  | traders in securities that elect to use a mark-to-market method of accounting for securities holdings;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This discussion is based on the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or
the Code, its legislative history, existing and proposed regulations promulgated thereunder, published rulings and court decisions, all as of the date hereof. These laws are subject to change, possibly on a retroactive basis. In addition, this
discussion is based in part, upon representations of the depositary and the assumption that each obligation in the deposit agreement and any related agreement will be performed in accordance with its terms.

The actual tax consequences of investing in our ADSs or ordinary shares will vary depending on each prospective purchasers
circumstances. Prospective purchasers are urged to consult their own tax advisors concerning the particular U.S. federal income tax consequences to them of the purchase, ownership and disposition of our ADSs or ordinary shares, as well as the
consequences to them arising under the laws of any other taxing jurisdiction.

For purposes of the U.S. federal income tax
discussion below, you are a U.S. Holder if you beneficially own ADSs or ordinary shares as capital assets and are:



| |  |  | a citizen or resident of the United States for U.S. federal income tax purposes;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a corporation, or other entity taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, that was created or organized in or under the laws of the
United States or any state thereof or the District of Columbia;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source; or
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a trust if (a) a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over its administration and one or more U.S. persons have
the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust, or (b) the trust has a valid election in effect to be treated as a U.S. person.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For U.S. federal income tax purposes, income earned through a U.S. or non-U.S. partnership (including any entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) is attributed to its owners.
Accordingly, if a partnership holds ADSs or ordinary shares, the tax treatment of its owners will generally depend on their specific status and the activities of the partnership.

If you hold our ADSs, you should be treated as the beneficial owner of the underlying ordinary shares represented by those ADSs for U.S.
federal income tax purposes.

##### Table of Contents

Dividends on ADSs or Ordinary Shares

Subject to the Passive Foreign Investment Company discussion below, the gross amount of any distributions you receive on your
ADSs and ordinary shares will generally be includible in your gross income on the day you actually or constructively receive such income as dividend income if the distributions are made from our current or accumulated earnings and profits,
calculated according to U.S. federal income tax principles. We do not intend to determine our earnings and profits on the basis of U.S. federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, distributions paid on our ADSs or ordinary shares, if any, will be
treated as dividend distributions for U.S. federal income tax purposes. With respect to non-corporate U.S. Holders, certain dividends received in taxable years beginning before January 1, 2013 from a qualified foreign corporation may be subject
to reduced rate of taxation. A non-U.S. corporation is treated as a qualified foreign corporation with respect to dividends from that corporation on shares (or ADSs backed by such shares) that are readily tradable on an established securities market
in the United States. U.S. Treasury Department guidance indicates that our ADSs, which are listed on the NYSE, are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States. However, based on existing guidance, it is not entirely
clear whether dividends you receive with respect to the ordinary shares will be taxed as qualified dividend income, because the ordinary shares are not themselves listed on a U.S. exchange. You should consult your own tax advisor as to the rate of
tax that will apply to you with respect to dividend distributions, if any, you receive from us.

If you are a corporation, you
will not be entitled to claim a dividends-received deduction with respect to distributions made by us. Dividends will generally constitute foreign source passive income for purposes of the U.S. foreign tax credit rules. You should consult your own
advisor as to your ability, and the various limitations on your ability, to claim foreign tax credits in connection with the receipt of dividends.

Sale or other Dispositions of ADSs or Ordinary Shares

Subject to
the Passive Foreign Investment Company discussion below, when you sell or otherwise dispose of ADSs or ordinary shares, you will recognize capital gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between the amount realized on the sale
or other disposition and your adjusted tax basis in the ADSs or ordinary shares. Your adjusted tax basis will equal the amount you paid for the ADSs or ordinary shares. Any gain or loss you recognize will be long-term capital gain or loss if your
holding period in our ADSs or ordinary shares is more than one year at the time of disposition. If you are a non-corporate U.S. Holder, including an individual, any such long-term capital gain will be taxed at preferential rates. Your ability to
deduct capital losses will be subject to various limitations.

Any gain or loss you recognize on a disposition of ADSs or
ordinary shares will generally be U.S. source gain or loss for U.S. foreign tax credit purposes. You should consult your own tax advisor as to your ability, and the various limitations on your ability, to claim foreign tax credits in connection with
a disposition of ADSs or ordinary shares.

Passive Foreign Investment Company

In general, we will be classified as a passive foreign investment company, or PFIC in any taxable year if either: (a) the average
quarterly value of our gross assets that produce passive income or are held for the production of passive income is at least 50% of the average quarterly value of our total gross assets (the asset test) or (b) 75% or more of our
gross income for the taxable year is passive income (such as certain dividends, interest or royalties). For this purpose, we will be treated as owning our proportionate share of the assets and earning our proportionate share of the income of any
other corporation in which we own, directly or indirectly, at least 25% (by value) of the stock. For this purpose, we will be treated as owning our proportionate share of the assets and earning our proportionate share of the income of any other
corporation in which we own, directly or indirectly, at least 25% (by value) of the stock. For purposes of the asset test: (a) any cash and cash invested in short-term, interest bearing, debt instruments, or bank deposits that are readily
convertible into cash will count as producing passive income or held for the production of passive income, and (b) the total value of our assets is calculated based on our market capitalization.

We believe that we were not a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes for our taxable year ended December 31, 2010, and we do not
expect to be a PFIC in any future taxable year. However, PFIC status is tested each year and depends on the composition of our assets and income and the value of our assets from time to time. Since we currently hold, and expect to continue to hold,
a substantial amount of cash and other passive assets and, since the value of our assets is to be determined in large part by reference to the market prices of our ADSs and ordinary shares, which is likely to fluctuate over time, there can be no
assurance that we will not be a PFIC in 2011 or for any future taxable year.

If we were a PFIC for any taxable year during
which you held ADSs or ordinary shares, certain adverse U.S. federal income tax rules would apply. You would be subject to additional taxes and interest charges on certain excess distributions we make and on any gain recognized on the
disposition or deemed disposition of your ADSs or ordinary shares, regardless of whether we continue to be a PFIC in the year in which you receive an excess distribution or dispose of or are deemed to dispose of your ADSs or ordinary
shares. Distributions in respect of your ADSs or ordinary shares during a taxable year would constitute excess distributions if, in the aggregate, they exceed 125% of the average amount of distributions in respect of your ADSs or
ordinary shares over the three preceding taxable years or, if shorter, the portion of your holding period before such taxable year.



98

##### Table of Contents

To compute the tax on excess distributions or any gain, (a) the
excess distribution or the gain would be allocated ratably to each day in your holding period, (b) the amount allocated to the current year and any tax year prior to the first taxable year in which we were a PFIC would be taxed as
ordinary income in the current year, (c) the amount allocated to other taxable years would be taxable at the highest applicable marginal rate in effect for that year, and (d) an interest charge at the rate for underpayment of taxes for any
period described under (c) above would be imposed with respect to any portion of the excess distribution or gain that is allocated to such period. In addition, if we were a PFIC, no distribution that you receive from us would
qualify for taxation at the preferential rate discussed in the Dividends on ADSs or Ordinary Shares section above.

If we were a PFIC in any taxable year during which your held our ADSs or ordinary shares, under certain attribution rules, you will be deemed to own your proportionate share of lower-tier PFICs, and will
be subject to U.S. federal income tax on (a) a distribution on the shares of a lower-tier PFIC and (b) a disposition of shares of a lower-tier PFIC, both as if you directly held the shares of such lower-tier PFIC.

You would generally be able to avoid the PFIC rules regarding excess distribution and gain described above by making a timely
so-called mark-to-market election with respect to your ADSs provided our ADSs are marketable. Our ADSs will be marketable as long as they remain regularly traded on a national securities exchange, such
as the NYSE. If you made this election in a timely fashion, you would generally recognize as ordinary income or ordinary loss the difference between the fair market value of your ADSs on the first day of any taxable year and their fair market value
on the last day of that taxable year. Any ordinary income resulting from this election would generally be taxed at ordinary income rates and would not be eligible for the reduced rate of tax applicable to qualified dividend income. Any ordinary
losses would be limited to the extent of the net amount of previously included income as a result of the mark-to-market election, if any. Your basis in the ADSs would be adjusted to reflect any such income or loss. Gain on the sale or other
disposition of the ADSs would be treated as ordinary income, and loss on the sale or other disposition of the ADSs or ordinary shares would be treated as ordinary loss, but only to the extent of the net amount previously included in income as a
result of the mark-to-market election. You should consult your own tax advisor regarding potential advantages and disadvantages to you of making a mark-to-market election with respect to your ADSs. The mark-to-market election will not be
available for any lower tier PFIC that is deemed owned pursuant to the attribution rules discussed above.

Alternatively, a
U.S. Holder of stock in a PFIC may make a so-called Qualified Electing Fund election to avoid the PFIC rules regarding excess distribution and gain described above. A U.S. Holder that makes such an election would include in
income for a taxable year its pro rata share of the corporations income for the taxable year. However, we do not intend to provide you with the information you would need to make or maintain a Qualified Electing Fund election and
you will, therefore, not be able to make or maintain such an election with respect to your ADSs or ordinary shares.

Under
newly enacted legislation, unless otherwise provided by the U.S. Treasury, each U.S. Holder of a PFIC is required to file an annual report containing such information as the U.S. Treasury may require. Prior to such legislation, a U.S. Holder of a
PFIC was required to file U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form 8621 only for each taxable year in which such shareholder received distributions from the PFIC, recognized gain on a disposition of the PFIC stock, or made a reportable
election. If we are or become a PFIC, you should consult your tax advisor regarding any reporting requirements that may apply to you.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

In general, dividend payments with respect to the ADSs or ordinary shares and the proceeds received on the sale or other disposition of ADSs or ordinary shares may be subject to information reporting to
the IRS and to backup withholding. Backup withholding will not apply, however, if you provide a taxpayer identification number, certify as to no loss of exemption from backup withholding and otherwise comply with the applicable backup
withholding rules. To establish your status as an exempt person, you will be required to provide certification on IRS Form W-9. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the application of the United States information reporting and
backup withholding rules. Any amounts withheld from payments to you under the backup withholding rules that exceed your U.S. federal income tax liability will be allowed as a refund or a credit against your U.S. federal income tax liability,
provided that you timely furnish the required information to the IRS. Under newly enacted legislation, certain individuals holding the ADSs or ordinary shares other than in an account at a U.S. financial institution may be subject to additional
information reporting requirements.

|ITEM 11. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
|-------- | ----------------------------------------------------------

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

Our exposure to interest rate risk primarily relates to interest income generated by excess cash invested in demand
deposits with remaining maturities of three months or less when purchased. Interest earning instruments carry a degree of interest rate risk. We have not used derivative financial instruments to manage our interest rate risk exposure.

We have not been exposed to material risks due to changes in market interest rates. We are not exposed to interest risk associated with
the convertible notes, as the interest rate has been fixed upon our IPO in December 2010. However, our future interest expense may increase and interest income may fall due to changes in market interest rates.

Inflation

Inflation in China has not materially impacted our results of operations in recent years. According to the National Bureau of Statistics
of China, the consumer price index in China increased by 5.9% in 2008, decreased by 0.7% in 2009 and increased by 3.3% in 2010. If inflation rates continue to rise, we may experience greater increases in the wages of our professionals as a result of
the increasing inflation levels in China or otherwise. See Item 3.D. Key InformationRisk FactorsRisks Related to Our Business and Our IndustryIncreases in wages for professionals in China could prevent us from sustaining our
competitive advantage and could reduce our profit margins.

Foreign Currency Risk

Our financial statements are expressed in U.S. dollars. However, a majority of our revenues and expenses are denominated in Renminbi. Our
exposure to foreign exchange risk primarily relates to the limited cash denominated in currencies other than the functional currencies of each entity and limited revenue contracts dominated in Japanese Yen in certain PRC operating entities. We do
not believe that we currently have any significant direct foreign exchange risk and have not hedged exposures denominated in foreign currencies or any other derivative financial instruments. However, the value of your investment in our ADSs will be
affected by the foreign exchange rate between U.S. dollars and Renminbi because the primary value of our business is effectively denominated in Renminbi, while the ADSs will be traded in U.S. dollars. See Item 3.D. Key InformationRisk
FactorsRisks Related to Our Business and Our IndustryFluctuation in the value of the Renminbi and other currencies may have a material adverse effect on the value of your investment.

##### Table of Contents

To the extent that we need to convert our U.S. dollar denominated cash balance into Renminbi
for our operations, appreciation of the Renminbi against the U.S. dollar would have an adverse effect on the Renminbi amount we receive from the conversion. Assuming we had converted the U.S. dollar denominated cash balance of $128.4 million as of
December 31, 2010 into Renminbi at the exchange rate of $1.00 for RMB6.6000 as of December 30, 2010, this cash balance would have been RMB847.4 million. Assuming a further 1.0% appreciation of the Renminbi against the U.S. dollar, this
cash balance would have decreased to RMB839.0 million as of December 31, 2010.

To date, we have not entered into any
hedging transactions in an effort to reduce our exposure to foreign currency exchange risk. While we may decide to enter into hedging transactions in the future, the availability and effectiveness of these hedging transactions may be limited and we
may not be able to successfully hedge our exposure at all. In addition, our currency exchange losses may be magnified by PRC exchange control regulations that restrict our ability to convert Renminbi into foreign currency.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

In September 2009, the FASB issued an authoritative pronouncement regarding revenue arrangements with multiple deliverables. This
pronouncement was issued in response to practice concerns related to accounting for revenue arrangements with multiple deliverables under the existing pronouncement. Although the new pronouncement retains the criteria from the existing pronouncement
for when delivered items in a multiple-deliverable arrangement should be considered separate units of accounting, it removes the separation criterion under the existing pronouncement that objective and reliable evidence of the fair value of any
undelivered items must exist for the delivered items to be considered a separate unit or separate units of accounting. The new pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Entities can elect to apply this
pronouncement prospectively to new or materially modified arrangements after the pronouncements effective date or retrospectively for all periods presented. Early application is permitted. However, if the entity elects prospective
application and early adopts this pronouncement after its first interim reporting period, it must also retrospectively apply this pronouncement as of the beginning of that fiscal year and disclose the effect of the retrospective adjustments on
the prior interim periods revenue, income before taxes, net income, and earnings per share. We do not expect the adoption of this pronouncement to have a significant impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

In September 2009, the FASB issued an authoritative pronouncement regarding software revenue recognition for arrangements with multiple
deliverables. This pronouncement addresses how consideration should be allocated to different units of accounting and removes the previous criterion that entities must use objective and reliable evidence of fair value in separately accounting for
deliverables. The pronouncement provides that products containing both software and non-software components that function together to deliver the products essential functionality are excluded from the scope of current revenue recognition
guidance for software products. The pronouncement includes factors that entities should consider when determining whether the software and non-software components function together to deliver the products essential functionality. The
pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Entities can elect to apply this pronouncement prospectively to new or materially modified arrangements after the pronouncements effective date, or
retrospectively for all periods presented. Early application is permitted. However, if the entity elects prospective application and early adopts this pronouncement after its first interim reporting period, it must also retrospectively apply this
pronouncement as of the beginning of that fiscal year and disclose the effect of the retrospective adjustments on the prior interim periods revenue, income before taxes, net income, and earnings per share. We do not expect the adoption of this
pronouncement to have a significant impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

In January, 2010, the FASB
issued authoritative guidance to improve disclosures about fair value measurements. This guidance amends previous guidance on fair value measurements to add new requirements for disclosures about transfers into and out of Levels 1 and 2 and separate
disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements relating to Level 3 measurement on a gross basis rather than as a net basis as currently required. This guidance also clarifies existing fair value disclosures about the level of
disaggregation and about inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value. This guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the requirement to provide the Level 3 activities of
purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements on a gross basis, which will be effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2010. Early application is permitted and in the period of initial adoption, entities are not
required to provide the amended disclosures for any previous periods presented for comparative purposes. We have adopted this pronouncement except for the requirement to provide the Level 3 activities of purchases, sales, issuances and settlements
on a gross basis. The adoption of this pronouncement does not have a significant effect on our consolidated financial position or result of operations.

In April 2010, the FASB issued an authoritative pronouncement regarding the milestone method of revenue recognition. The scope of this pronouncement is limited to arrangements that include milestones
relating to research or development deliverables. The pronouncement specifies criteria that must be met for a vendor to recognize consideration that is contingent upon achievement of a substantive milestone in its entirety in the period in which the
milestone is achieved. The criteria apply to milestones in arrangements within the scope of this pronouncement regardless of whether the arrangement is determined to have single or multiple deliverables or units of accounting. The pronouncement will
be effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Early application is permitted. Affected entities can apply this guidance prospectively to milestones achieved after adoption. However,
retrospective application to all prior periods is also permitted. We are in the process of evaluating the effect of adoption of this pronouncement.

In July 2010, the FASB issued an authoritative pronouncement on disclosure about the credit quality of financing receivables and the allowance for credit losses. The objective of this guidance is to
provide financial statement users with greater transparency about an entitys allowance for credit losses and the credit quality of its financing receivables. The guidance requires an entity to provide disclosures on a disaggregated basis on
two defined levels: (1) portfolio segment; and (2) class of financing receivable. The guidance includes additional disclosure requirements about financing receivables, including: (1) Credit quality indicators of financing receivables
at the end of the reporting period by class of financing receivables; (2) The aging of past due financing receivables at the end of the reporting period by class of financing receivables; and (3) The nature and extent of troubled debt
restructurings that occurred during the period by class of financing receivables and their effect on the allowance for credit losses. For public entities, the disclosures as of the end of a reporting period are effective for interim and annual
reporting periods ending on or after December 15, 2010. The disclosures about activity that occurs during a reporting period are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2010. We are in the
process of evaluating the effect of adoption of this pronouncement.

##### Table of Contents

In December 2010, the FASB issued an authoritative pronouncement on when to perform step 2
of the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts. The amendments in this update modify step 1 so that for those reporting units, an entity is required to perform step 2 of the goodwill impairment test if it
is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists. In determining whether it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists, an entity should consider whether there are any adverse qualitative factors indicating that an impairment
may exist. The qualitative factors are consistent with existing guidance, which requires that goodwill of a reporting unit be tested for impairment between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not
reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. For public entities, the guidance is effective for impairment tests performed during entities fiscal years (and interim periods within those years) that begin after
December 15, 2010. Early adoption will not be permitted. We do not expect the adoption of this pronouncement to have a significant impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

In December 2010, the FASB issued an authoritative pronouncement on disclosure of supplementary pro forma information for business
combinations. The objective of this guidance is to address diversity in practice regarding the interpretation of the pro forma revenue and earnings disclosure requirements for business combinations. The amendments in this update specify that if a
public entity presents comparative financial statements, the entity should disclose revenue and earnings of the combined entity as though the business combination(s) that occurred during the current year had occurred as of the beginning of the
comparable prior annual reporting period only. The amendments also expand the supplemental pro forma disclosures to include a description of the nature and amount of material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments directly attributable to the business
combination included in the reported pro forma revenue and earnings. The amendments affect any public entity as defined by Topic 805  Business Combinations that enters into business combinations that are material on an individual or
aggregate basis. The amendments will be effective for business combinations consummated in periods beginning after December 15, 2010, and should be applied prospectively as of the date of adoption. Early adoption is permitted. We do not expect
the adoption of this pronouncement to have a significant impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

and/or other distribution prior to such deposit to pay such charge.

The following additional charges shall be incurred by the
ADR holders, by any party depositing or withdrawing shares or by any party surrendering ADSs or to whom ADSs are issued (including, without limitation, issuance pursuant to a stock dividend or stock split declared by us or an exchange of stock
regarding the ADRs or the deposited securities or a distribution of ADSs), whichever is applicable:

We will pay all other charges and expenses of the depositary and any agent of the depositary (except the custodian) pursuant to
agreements from time to time between us and the depositary. The charges described above may be amended from time to time by agreement between us and the depositary.

The depositary collects its fees for issuance and cancellation of ADSs directly from investors depositing shares or surrendering ADSs for the purpose of withdrawal or from intermediaries acting for them.
The depositary collects fees for making distributions to investors by deducting those fees from the amounts distributed or by selling a portion of distributable property to pay the fees. The depositary may collect its annual fee for depositary
services by deduction from cash distributions, or by directly billing investors, or by charging the book-entry system accounts of participants acting for them. The depositary may generally refuse to provide services to any holder until the fees and
expenses owing by such holder for those services or otherwise are paid.

Fees Payable by the Depositary to the Issuer

Our depositary has agreed to reimburse us for certain reasonable fees and expenses we incur that are directly related to establishment and
ongoing maintenance of the ADR program, including (a) initial and ongoing listing fees, underwriting fees and fees paid in conjunction with the preparation and execution of any offering of ADRs to be issued under the ADR program, including our
initial public offering; (b) investor relations activities related to the ADR program, including, but not limited to, road shows, investor conference participation expenses, prospectus printing, related advertising and public relations in those
jurisdictions in which the ADRs trade; (c) reasonable legal, audit and accounting fees and expenses, including, but not limited to, those related to reporting and corporate governance requirements of the SEC and/or any stock exchanges upon
which the ADRs are listed for trading; (d) shareholder identification and perception studies and other investor relations expenses, in each case as arranged by or through the depositary; (e) broker reimbursements; and (f) any
out-of-pocket expenses and fees we might otherwise owe the depository and other bona fide ADR program related third party expenses. There are limits on the amount of expenses for which the depositary will reimburse us, but the amount of
reimbursement available to us is not perforce related to the amounts of fees the depositary collects from investors. Since we just completed our initial public offering on December 17, 2010, we did not receive any reimbursement payment from the
depositary in the year ended December 31, 2010. As part of its service to our company, the depositary had agreed to waive fees for establishment and ongoing maintenance of the ADR program estimated to total $80,000 in the year ended
December 31, 2010.

Internal
Control Over Financial Reporting

This annual report does not include a report of managements assessment regarding
internal control over financial reporting or an attestation report by our independent registered public accounting firm due to the transition period permitted by rules of the SEC for newly public companies.

We are subject to reporting obligations under the U.S. securities laws. The SEC, as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley
Act of 2002, or the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, adopted rules requiring every public company to include a management report on such companys internal control over financial reporting in its annual report, which contains managements assessment of
the effectiveness of the companys internal control over financial reporting. In addition, an independent registered public accounting firm must report on the effectiveness of the companys internal control over financial reporting. These
requirements will first apply to our annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ending on December 31, 2011, if certain conditions are met.

In connection with the preparation and audit of our consolidated financial statements included in this annual report, we and our independent registered public accounting firm identified one material
weakness and one significant deficiency, each as defined in the U.S. Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Standard AU Section 325, Communications About Control Deficiencies in an Audit of Financial Statements, or AU325, in our
internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010. As defined in AU325, a material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a
reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the companys annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis, and a significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of
deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those responsible for oversight of our financial reporting.

The material weakness identified related to insufficient accounting personnel with appropriate U.S. GAAP knowledge. The significant
deficiency identified was related to the lack of control over a migration from one information system to an upgraded system. We have undertaken or are in the process of undertaking a number of steps to improve our internal controls over financial
reporting and to address the material weakness and the significant deficiency, including:



| |  |  | We established an audit committee in February 2010 to oversee our accounting and financial reporting processes. In November 2010, we appointed Mr. Tom
Manning as the chairman of our audit committee and we are in the process to identify an additional independent director and audit committee member who meets the qualification of financial expert.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | We launched a recruitment program to hire additional qualified accounting personnel in April 2010. As a result, we hired a Director of Reporting and
two Managers of Reporting in July 2010 and added three more accounting and reporting supervisors in 2011. Currently, we have nine people who have relevant U.S. GAAP accounting and reporting experienceall from Big 4 auditing firms.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | We implemented regular and continuous U.S. GAAP accounting and financial reporting training programs, including internal and external programs, for our
existing accounting and reporting personnel, including senior financial leaders. We also maintained access to Big 4 websites and other channels to receive timely updates on announcements of new U.S. GAAP literature and SEC regulations.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | We devoted significant man power to: (1) update our operating and accounting system during the first quarter of 2011; (2) ensure data accuracy and
completeness following the system upgrade; (3) standardize the process of collection and presentation of accounting and operational data to enhance our operational and financial reporting; and (4) redefine our monthly and quarterly management
information package to enhance the business reviews led by our senior management team.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | We are in the process of recruiting qualified personnel to establish our internal audit function. Currently, we have recruited the head of our internal
audit function, who has extensive experience in successfully implementing SOX 404 projects in a U.S. publicly listed company and as a consultant from a Big 4 auditing firm, and she will join the company in July 2011. Before the
establishment of our internal audit function in January 2011 we: (1) established a steering committee consisting of our CEO, COO and CFO, chaired by our CFO and reporting to our Audit Committee, to be responsible for the overall progress and quality
of the implementation exercise; and (2) designated a team of management level personnel with in-depth knowledge of financial reporting, our operations and comprehensive experience in process management to work with PricewaterhouseCoopers
consulting team to manage our day-to-day implementation.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | We engaged PricewaterhouseCoopers to assist management in evaluating our current internal controls over financial reporting and implementing necessary
controls and measures to assist us in preparing for compliance with the requirements under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. From early January 2011, we initiated the following actions and procedures to enhance our internal controls over
financial reporting:

##### Table of Contents

| |  |  | we re-designed policies and procedures of our revenue cycle, which included client and engagement acceptance, project budget approval and monitoring,
revenue recognition management and accounts receivable management, among other things;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | we also re-designed policies and procedures of our monthly and quarterly financial closing cycle, which included a comprehensive accounting policy to
guide day-to-day operations and a well designed closing procedure and checklist to enhance internal controls over reporting and disclosure; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | we are in the process of updating system applications to meet the requirements of re-designed procedures and to enhance effectiveness and efficiency of

| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We will continue to implement the necessary procedures and
policies, including those outlined above, to improve our internal controls over financial reporting and remediate any material weaknesses and significant deficiencies as we prepare for our initial Section 404 reporting requirement under the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act which will take place in the fiscal year ending December 31, 2011.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our
disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of December 31, 2010. Based on such evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that,
as of December 31, 2010, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the material weakness and significant deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting described above.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We made the changes described above to our internal control over financial reporting during the period covered by this annual report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially
affect, our internal control over financial reporting.



|ITEM 16A. | AUDIT COMMITTEE FINANCIAL EXPERT
|--------- | --------------------------------

Our audit committee consists of Al-Noor Gulamali Abdulla Ramji and Tom Manning. Mr. Manning is the chairman of our audit committee, and we do not currently have an audit committee member that
meets the criteria of an audit committee financial expert as set forth under the applicable rules of the SEC. Our board of directors has an ongoing search to identify a third audit committee member that meets such criteria prior to the first
anniversary of our initial public offering. Each of Mr. Ramji and Mr. Manning satisfies the independence requirements within the meaning of Section 303A of the Corporate Governance Rules of the NYSE and satisfies the
independence requirements under Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act. The audit committee oversees our accounting and financial reporting processes and the audits of the financial statements of our company.



|ITEM 16B. | CODE OF ETHICS
|--------- | --------------

Our board
of directors has adopted a code of ethics that is applicable to our senior executive and financial officers. In addition, our board of directors adopted a code of conduct that is applicable to all of our directors, officers and employees. Our code
of ethics and our code of conduct are publicly available on our website,http://www.isoftstone.com.

|ITEM 16G. | CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
|--------- | --------------------

As
a foreign private issuer with ADSs listed on the NYSE, we are subject to corporate governance requirements imposed by the NYSE. Under Section 303A of the NYSE Listed Company Manual, in general NYSE-listed non-U.S. companies may follow their
home-country corporate governance practices in lieu of some of the NYSE corporate governance requirements. We are committed to a high standard of corporate governance. As such, we strive to comply with most of the NYSE corporate governance
practices. The standards applicable to us are considerably different than the standards applied to U.S. domestic issuers. The significantly different standards applicable to us do not require us to:



| |  |  | have a majority of the board be independent;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------



| |  |  | have a minimum of three members or a person with accounting or related financial management expertise in our audit committee;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | have a compensation committee or a nominating and corporate governance committee;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | provide an annual certification by our chief executive officer that he or she is not aware of any non-compliance with any corporate governance rules of
the NYSE;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | have regularly scheduled executive sessions with only non-management directors;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | have at least one executive session of solely independent directors each year;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | seek shareholder approval for (i) the implementation and material revisions of the terms of share incentive plans, (ii) the issuance of more
than 1% of our outstanding ordinary shares or more than 1% of our outstanding voting power to a related party, (iii) the issuance of more than 20% of our outstanding ordinary shares, and (iv) an issuance that would result in a change of
control;

| |  |  | adopt and disclose corporate governance guidelines; or
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | adopt and disclose a code of business conduct and ethics for directors, officers and employees.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We do not intend to rely on any of the exemptions provided by the NYSE to foreign private issuers, except that we will not provide an
annual certification by our chief executive officer that he or she is not aware of any non-compliance with any corporate governance rules of the NYSE, and we will not seek shareholder approval for (i) the issuance of more than 1% of our
outstanding ordinary shares or more than 1% of our outstanding voting power to a related party, (ii) the issuance of more than 20% of our outstanding ordinary shares, and (iii) an issuance that would result in a change of control. As a
result, you may not be provided with the benefits of certain corporate governance requirements of the NYSE.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND SHAREHOLDERS OF ISOFTSTONE HOLDINGS LIMITED

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of iSoftStone Holdings Limited (the Company) and its subsidiaries and variable interest entity (collectively, the
Group) as of December 31, 2009 and 2010, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in equity and comprehensive income (loss), and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31,
2010, and the related financial statement schedule included in Schedule I. These consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion
on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Group is not required to
have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of the Groups internal control over financial reporting. Our audits include consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Groups internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We
believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Group as of December 31, 2009 and 2010, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2010, in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to such consolidated financial statements taken as a whole,
presents fairly in all material respects, the information set forth therein.

ISOFTSTONE HOLDINGS LIMITED

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2008, 2009 AND 2010

(In U.S. dollars in
thousands, except share and per share data, or otherwise noted)

1. ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES

iSoftStone Holdings Limited (the Company), incorporated in the Cayman Islands, is the holding company for a group of
companies. The Company, its subsidiaries and its consolidated variable interest entity (the VIE) (collectively the Group ) are principally engaged in providing an integrated suite of IT services and solutions, including IT
services, Consulting and Solution services, and Business Process Outsourcing services (BPO services).

The Group
commenced its operations in October 2001 through Beijing iSoftStone Technologies Limited (Beijing iSoftStone), a limited liability company established in China and owned by Mr. Tianwen Liu and other individuals (the
founders).

In November 2005, the corporate structure of the Group was reorganized by establishing the Company and
transferring substantially all the operating assets and operations of Beijing iSoftStone into iSoftStone Information Technology (Group) Company Limited (iSoftStone WFOE), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, in exchange of issuance
of ordinary shares of the Company to the founders.

The ultimate beneficial shareholders of the Company and Beijing iSoftStone
were identical with no shareholder having, before or after the reorganization, a controlling interest. The Company has therefore accounted for this transaction as a recapitalization with no change in the basis of the assets and liabilities of
Beijing iSoftStone.

Certain of clients of the Group, primarily PRC stated-owned entities, are not permitted to receiving
certain services from foreign owned entities. As a Cayman Islands corporation, the Company is deemed a foreign legal person under PRC laws. Accordingly, iSoftStone WFOE, the Companys wholly owned subsidiary in the PRC, as a foreign invested
company, is restricted from engaging in related business with these clients. The Group therefore conducts such business through its VIE, Beijing iSoftStone. iSoftStone WFOE entered into a series of agreements with Beijing iSoftStone and its
shareholders in November 2005 through which iSoftStone WFOE enjoys substantially all of the risks of ownership of the VIE and controls it. The agreements comprise:

Exclusive Outsourcing Agreement: Pursuant to the exclusive outsourcing agreement between iSoftStone WFOE and Beijing iSoftStone, Beijing iSoftStone agreed to exclusively subcontract its business
contracts, to the extent that subcontracting is permitted by such business contracts, to iSoftStone WFOE and pay the revenue collected under such business contracts to iSoftStone WFOE. The exclusive subcontracting agreement will terminate upon
written agreement by the parties.

Exclusive Technology Consulting and Management Service Agreement: Pursuant to the exclusive
technology consulting and management service agreement between iSoftStone WFOE and Beijing iSoftStone, iSoftStone WFOE agreed to provide exclusive technology consulting and management service to Beijing iSoftStone for service fees equal to the
revenue realizable under the business contracts of Beijing iSoftStone that are not subcontracted to iSoftStone WFOE. The exclusive technology consulting and management service agreement has a term of three years from its signing date and is
unlimitedly renewable for another three years.

Trademark and Software Licensing Agreement: Pursuant to the trademark and
software licensing agreement between iSoftStone WFOE and Beijing iSoftStone, iSoftStone WFOE agreed to license its trademarks, software copyrights and domain names to Beijing iSoftStone on a non-exclusive basis. Beijing iSoftStone would pay
licensing fees in a lump sum equal to the revenue realizable under the business contracts of Beijing iSoftStone that are not subcontracted to iSoftStone WFOE and that are not otherwise paid to iSoftStone WFOE pursuant to the aforesaid exclusive
technology consulting and management service agreement. The trademark and software licensing agreement has a term of three years from its signing date and is unlimitedly renewable for another three years.

Irrevocable Power of Attorney: The shareholders of Beijing iSoftStone executed an irrevocable power of attorney to appoint iSoftStone
WFOE or iSoftStone WFOEs designee as their attorney-in-fact to attend shareholders meeting of Beijing iSoftStone and to vote on their behalf. The power of attorney granted by the shareholders of Beijing iSoftStone remains valid until the
earlier of (a) the dissolution of Beijing iSoftStone, and (b) the related shareholders ceasing to be the shareholders of Beijing iSoftStone.

As a result of these contractual arrangements, iSoftStone WFOE is the primary beneficiary of the VIE and the Company has consolidated the financial results of the VIE in its consolidated financial
statements since the date of inception of Beijing iSoftStone.

There are no consolidated VIE assets that are collateral for
the VIEs obligations and can only be used to settle the VIEs obligations.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of presentation

The consolidated financial statements of the Group are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP).

Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company, all its wholly owned and majority owned
subsidiaries and the VIE in which the Group is deemed to be the primary beneficiary. All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated upon consolidation.

Noncontrolling interest

In June
2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued an authoritative pronouncement to amend the accounting rules for VIEs. The amendments effectively replace the quantitative-based risks-and-rewards calculation for determining
which reporting entity, if any, has a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity with an approach focused on identifying which reporting entity has (1) the power to direct the activities of a variable interest entity that most
significantly affect the entitys economic performance and (2) the obligation to absorb losses of, or the right to receive benefits from, the entity. Additionally, an enterprise is required to assess whether it has an implicit financial
responsibility to ensure that a variable interest entity operates as designed when determining whether it has the power to direct the activities of the variable interest entity that most significantly impact the entitys economic performance.
The new guidance also requires additional disclosures about a reporting entitys involvement with variable interest entities and about any significant changes in risk exposure as a result of that involvement.

The new guidance is effective at the start of a reporting entitys first fiscal year beginning after November 15, 2009, and all
interim and annual periods thereafter. The new VIE model requires that, upon adoption, a reporting entity should determine whether an entity is a VIE, and whether the reporting entity is the VIEs primary beneficiary, as of the date that the
reporting entity first became involved with the entity, unless an event requiring reconsideration of those initial conclusions occurred after that date. When making this determination, a reporting entity must assume that new guidance had been
effective from the date of its first involvement with the entity. The Group adopted the new guidance on January 1, 2010.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES(Continued)



Use of estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenue
and expenses in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant accounting estimates reflected in the Groups consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to,
revenue recognition, income taxes, accounts receivable, goodwill and intangible assets, share-based compensation and fair value of ordinary shares.

Restricted cash

Restricted cash represents the security deposits
with certain Chinese banks who issue bank accepted drafts for the purpose of settlement of trading purchases with the Companys suppliers. The restriction normally lasts for a period of three to six months.

Fair value

Fair
value is the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities
required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, the Group considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact and it considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability.
Authoritative literature provides a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels.

The level in the hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement as follows:

Level 1

Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2

Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets
or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can
be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.

Level 3

Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the
measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

Financial instruments

The Groups financial instruments mainly include cash, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, amounts due from/and
to related parties, short term borrowings, long term investments, contingent consideration payable in connection with business acquisitions, warrants and convertible notes.

The carrying values of cash, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and amounts due from/and to related parties approximate their fair values due to short-term maturities.

The carrying amounts of short term borrowings approximate their fair values as the borrowings bear variable interest rates which
approximate the market interest rate.

Contingent consideration payable in connection with business acquisitions, the warrants
to issue series B convertible redeemable shares and return rate reset and conversion right derivatives embedded in the convertible notes were carried at fair value.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES(Continued)



Allowance for doubtful accounts

Accounts receivable represents those receivables derived in the ordinary course of business. The Group conducts credit evaluations of
clients and generally do not require collateral or other security from their clients. The Group establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon estimates, historical experience and other factors surrounding the credit risk of specific
clients.

Property and equipment, net

Property and equipment, net, are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are provided using the straight-line method over the following estimated
useful lives:



|                               |  |  |                                   | 
|------------------------------ |  |  | --------------------------------- | 
|Computers and software         |  |  | 3  5 years                       | 
|Furniture and office equipment |  |  | 5 years                           | 
|Motor vehicles                 |  |  | 5 years                           | 
|Leasehold improvements         |  |  | the shorter of lease terms or the | 
|                               |  |  | estimated useful lives            | 

Depreciation and
amortization of these assets, on the same basis as other property assets, commences when the assets are ready for their intended use.

Long term investments

Investee companies over which the Group has the ability to exercise significant influence, but does not have a controlling interest are accounted for using the equity method. Significant influence is
generally considered to exist when the Group has an ownership interest in the voting shares of the investee between 20% and 50%, and other factors, such as representation in the investees Board of Directors, voting rights and the impact of
commercial arrangements, are considered in determining whether the equity method of accounting is appropriate.

Investee
companies over which the Group has no ability to exercise significant influence, nor has a controlling interest are accounted for using the cost method. No significant influence is generally considered to exist when the Group has an ownership
interest in the voting stock of the investee less than 20% are considered in determining whether the cost method of accounting is appropriate.

An impairment charge is recorded when the carrying amount of the investment exceeds its fair value and this condition is determined to be other-than-temporary.

Business combination

Business combinations are recorded using the purchase method of accounting. On January 1, 2009, the Group adopted a new accounting pronouncement with prospective application which made certain
changes to the previous authoritative literature on business combinations.

From January 1, 2009, the assets acquired,
the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest of the acquiree at the acquisition date, if any, are measured at their fair values as of that date. Goodwill is recognized and measured as the excess of the total consideration transferred
plus the fair value of any noncontrolling interest of the acquiree, if any, at the acquisition date over the fair values of the identifiable net assets acquired. Previously, any noncontrolling interest was reflected at historical cost.

Common forms of the consideration made in acquisitions include cash and common equity instruments. Consideration transferred in a
business acquisition is measured at the fair value as at the date of acquisition. For shares issued in a business combination, the Group has estimated the fair value as of the date of acquisition.

Where the consideration in an acquisition includes contingent consideration, the payment of which depends on the achievement of certain
specified conditions post-acquisition, from January 1, 2009 the contingent consideration is recognized and measured at its fair value at the acquisition date, and if recorded as a liability, it is subsequently carried at fair value with changes
in fair value reflected in earnings. For periods prior to January 1, 2009, contingent consideration was not recorded until the contingency was resolved.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES(Continued)



Acquired intangible assets with finite lives

Acquired intangible assets with finite lives are carried at cost less accumulated amortization. Customer base is amortized using the
estimated attrition pattern of the acquired intangible assets. Contract backlog, non-compete agreements and trademark are amortized using the straight-line method over the following estimated economic lives:



|                       |  |  |                 | 
|---------------------- |  |  | --------------- | 
|Customer base          |  |  | 1.8  6 years   | 
|Contract backlog       |  |  | 0.3  1.3 years | 
|Non-compete agreements |  |  | 4  5 years     | 
|Trademark              |  |  | 4 .4 years      | 

Impairment of long-lived assets
with finite lives

The Group reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may no longer be recoverable. When these events occur, the Group measures impairment by comparing the carrying value of the long-lived assets to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to
result from the use of the assets and their eventual disposition. If the sum of the expected undiscounted cash flow is less than the carrying amount of the assets, the Group would recognize an impairment loss based on the fair value of the assets.
There were no impairment losses during the years ended December 31, 2008, 2009 and 2010.

Impairment of goodwill

The Group tests goodwill annually following a two-step process. The first step compares the fair value of each
reporting unit to its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill is not considered to be impaired and the second step will not be required. If the carrying amount of a reporting
unit exceeds its fair value, the second step compares the implied fair value of goodwill to the carrying value of a reporting units goodwill. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined in a manner similar to accounting for a business
combination with the allocation of the assessed fair value determined in the first step to the assets and liabilities of the reporting unit. The excess of the fair value of the reporting unit over the amounts assigned to the assets and liabilities
is the implied fair value of goodwill. An impairment loss is recognized for any excess in the carrying value of goodwill over the implied fair value of goodwill.

Research and development expenses

Research and development expenses
consist of expenditures incurred in the development of the internally used software. To date, costs incurred after technological feasibility was established and prior to completion of software development have not been material, and accordingly, the
Group has expensed all research and development expenses when incurred.

Revenue recognition

The Group provides a comprehensive range of IT services and solutions, categorized into three business lines: (i) IT services;
(ii) Consulting and Solution services; and (iii) BPO services. The rights to software developed by the Group on behalf of its clients belong to the clients and the Group does not have the option to acquire such rights from its clients.

Revenue is considered realizable and earned when all of the following criteria are met: persuasive evidence of a sales
arrangement exists; delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; the price is fixed or determinable; and collectability is reasonably assured.

Business tax

The Groups PRC subsidiaries are subject to business tax
at rate of 5% of total revenues for certain type of contracts. Certain contracts under specific formalities are exempted from business tax in accordance with the PRC tax laws. Business tax is recorded as a reduction in revenues when incurred.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES(Continued)



Revenue recognition(Continued)



Value added taxes rebate revenues

The Group receives value added taxes (VAT) rebates from tax authority as an incentive to encourage certain high-tech
industries. VAT rebates are recorded as revenue when the Group pays the relevant VAT and properly files the rebate application to tax authority when the related rebates become receivable. The Group has recorded $137, $261, and $240 of VAT rebate in
revenue for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2009 and 2010, respectively. The VAT rebate revenues are classified into the relevant revenue categories.

IT services

IT services revenues are generated from either
time-and-expense or fixed-price contracts.

Time-and-expense contracts

Revenues from time-and-expense contracts are recognized as the related services are rendered assuming all other basic revenue recognition
criteria are met. Under time-and-expense contracts, the Group is reimbursed for actual hours incurred at negotiated hourly billing rates. Clients may terminate the contracts at any time before the work is completed but are obligated to pay the
actual service hours incurred through the termination date at the contract billing rate. Net revenues recognized for time-and-expense contracts of IT services totaled $39,933, $56,872 and $61,415 for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2009 and
2010, respectively.

Fixed-price contracts

Revenues from fixed-price IT service contracts require the Group to perform services throughout the contractual period, which are generally less than two years. Revenues from this type of arrangements are
generally recognized using the proportional performance method based on the proportion of direct labor costs incurred to the budgeted direct labor costs. The Group believes it can reasonably estimate the service hours expected to be incurred on each
project and there are no retention provisions based on the Groups historic experience. To date, the Group has not incurred a material loss on any contracts. However, as a policy, provisions for estimated losses on such engagements will be made
during the period in which a loss becomes probable and can be reasonably estimated.

Net revenues recognized for fixed-price
contracts of IT services totaled $15,202, $29,273 and $73,457 for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2009 and 2010, respectively.

Consulting and Solution services

Consulting and Solution services primarily consist of delivering specific software solutions to improve clients technology functionality, business performance and overall competiveness. Consulting
and Solution services principally involve development and customization of software, either or not based on the core software the Group has, and assistance in implementing the software, either on time-and-expense basis or fixed-price basis.

Time-and-expense contracts

Revenues from time-and-expense contracts are recognized as the related services are rendered assuming all other basic revenue recognition criteria are met. Under time-and-expense contracts, the Group is
reimbursed for actual hours incurred at negotiated hourly billing rates. Clients may terminate the contracts at any time before the work is completed but are obligated to pay the actual service hours incurred through the termination date at the
contract billing rate. Net revenues recognized for time-and-expense contracts of Consulting and Solution services totaled $2,878, $16,055 and $12,947 for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2009 and 2010, respectively.

(In U.S. dollars in thousands, except share and per share data, or otherwise noted)



2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES(Continued)



Consulting and Solution services(Continued)



Fixed-price contracts

Revenues are recognized over the service period based on the percentage of completion method measured based on the relationship of direct
labor costs already incurred to the total budgeted project direct labor costs. The Group recognizes cost of revenues for labor and other costs on actual basis with no deferral of project costs, including pre-contract costs. Net revenues recognized
for fixed-price contracts of Consulting and Solution services totaled $23,971, $28,405 and $41,380 for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2009 and 2010, respectively.

BPO services

BPO services primarily consist of providing outsourced
business process services to release the clients from day-to-day management of non-core processes to achieve cost savings. These contracts have involved the administrative processing of transactions in which the Group is remunerated on a per
transaction basis, time-and-expense basis or fixed-price basis.

For per transaction basis contracts, the Group recognizes
service revenues based on the volume of the transactions processed for the clients and a pre-agreed unit price for each type of process. Net revenues recognized for transaction basis contracts totaled $474, $2,746 and $1,774 for the years ended
December 31, 2008, 2009 and 2010, respectively.

For time-and-expense basis contracts, the Group recognizes revenues
based on the actual service time incurred at negotiated billing rates per unit of time. Net revenues recognized for time-and-expense basis contracts totaled $6, $1,036 and $5,004 for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2009 and 2010,
respectively.

For fixed-price basis contracts, the Group recognizes revenues over the service period based on the percentage
of completion method measured based on the relationship of direct labor costs already incurred to the total budgeted project direct labor costs. The Group recognizes cost of revenues for labor and other costs on actual basis with no deferral of
project costs, including pre-contract costs. Net revenues recognized for fixed-price contracts of BPO was $998 for the years ended December 31, 2010, and no such services were provided in the years ended December 2008 and 2009.

Other income

Other income primarily consists of sub-leasing income for office space.

Government subsidies

Government subsidies include amounts granted
by local government authorities to encourage the employment of new college graduates and other purposes. Government subsidies are recorded as receivables when the approval is obtained from the local government authorities and the Group has the right
to receive the subsidies, when historically the expenses that the subsidies intended to compensate normally have incurred by the Company. Subsidies to encourage employment of new college graduates are recognized in the statement of operations as
deductions to the cost of revenues and related expenses, primarily costs of revenues. Subsidies for other purposes are recognized as other operating income because the subsidies are not intended to compensate for specific expenditure. For the years
ended December 31, 2008, 2009 and 2010, the Group recognized government subsidies as a reduction to costs of revenues of $1,600, $1,815 and $6,133, respectively, as a reduction to operating expenses of $104, $316 and $1,569, respectively, and
as other operating income of $862, $2,999, and $3,269 respectively.

Operating leases

Leases where substantially all the rewards and risks of ownership of assets remain with the lessor are accounted for as operating lease.
Payments made under operating leases are charged to the consolidated statements of operations on a straight-line basis over the lease periods.

Advertising costs

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and such expenses were minimal for the periods presented. Advertising costs have been included
as part of selling and marketing expenses.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES(Continued)



Income taxes

Current income taxes are provided for in accordance with the laws of the relevant tax authorities. Deferred income taxes are recognized for temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and
liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements. Net operating loss carry forwards and credits are applied using enacted statutory tax rates applicable to future years. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance
when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The components of the deferred tax assets and liabilities are individually classified as current and non-current
based on their characteristics.

The impact of an uncertain income tax position on the income tax return is recognized at the
largest amount that is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant tax authority. An uncertain income tax position will not be recognized if it has less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained. Interest and penalties on income
taxes are classified as a component of the provisions for income taxes.

Foreign currency translation

The functional and reporting currency of the Company is the United States dollar (U.S. dollar). The financial records of the
Groups subsidiaries and VIE located in the PRC, Japan, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Korea, and the United States are maintained in their local currencies, the Renminbi (RMB), Japanese Yen (Yen), Hong Kong Dollars
(HK$), Taiwan Dollars (NT$), Korea Won (WON) and U.S. Dollars (US$), respectively, which are also the functional currencies of these entities.

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency
at the rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Transactions in currencies other than the functional currency during the year are converted into functional currency at the applicable rates of exchange prevailing when the transactions
occurred. Transaction gains and losses are recognized in the statements of operations.

The Groups entities with
functional currency of RMB, Yen, HK$, NT$, and WON translate their operating results and financial position into the U.S. dollar, the Groups reporting currency. Assets and liabilities are translated using the exchange rates in effect on the
balance sheet date. Revenues, expenses, gains and losses are translated using the average rate for the year. Translation adjustments are report as cumulative translation adjustments and are shown as a separate component of the other comprehensive
income.

Comprehensive income (loss)

Comprehensive income (loss) includes net income (loss) and foreign currency translation adjustments. Comprehensive income (loss) is reported in the consolidated statements of equity and comprehensive
income (loss).

Share-based compensation

Share-based payment transactions with employees, such as share options are measured based on the grant date fair value of the equity instrument. The Group recognizes the compensation costs, net of a
forfeiture rate, on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award, which is generally the vesting period of the award. The amount of compensation expenses recognized for any period is not less than the portion of the grant
date fair value of the options vested during that period. The estimate of forfeitures will be adjusted over the requisite service period to the extent that actual forfeitures differ, or are expected to differ, from such estimates. Changes in
estimated forfeitures will be recognized through a cumulative catch-up adjustment in the period of change and will impact the amount of stock compensation expense to be recognized in future periods.

Shares awards issued to non-employees, such as consultants, are measured at fair value at the earlier of the commitment date or the date
the service is completed, and are recognized over the period the service is provided.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES(Continued)



Net income per share

Basic net income per ordinary share is computed by dividing net income attributable to ordinary shareholders by the weighted average
number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period.

Diluted net income per ordinary share reflects the potential
dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue ordinary shares were exercised or converted into ordinary shares.

The Groups convertible preference shares and certain nonvested shares were participating securities, as the preference shares participated in undistributed earnings on an as-if-converted basis and
certain nonvested shares were entitled to dividend right before vesting. Accordingly, the Group used the two-class method whereby undistributed net income was allocated on a pro rata basis to the ordinary, preference shares and certain nonvested
shares to the extent that each class might share income for the period, whereas the undistributed net loss was allocated to ordinary shares and certain nonvested shares because preference shares were not contractually obligated to share the loss.

The Group has convertible preference shares, convertible redeemable preference shares, share options, nonvested shares,
warrants, convertible notes, and potentially issuable ordinary shares whose issuance is contingent upon the satisfaction of certain conditions in connection with business acquisitions, which could potentially dilute basic earnings per share in the
future. To calculate the number of shares for diluted income per share, the effect of the convertible preference shares and convertible redeemable preference shares is computed using the as-if-converted method; the effect of the warrants and share
options is computed using the treasury stock method.

Significant risks and uncertainties

Foreign currency risk

RMB is not freely convertible into other currencies. All foreign exchange transactions involving RMB must take place through the Peoples Bank of China or other institutions authorized to buy and
sell foreign currency. The exchange rate adopted for the foreign exchange transactions are the rates of exchange quoted by the Peoples Bank of China that are determined largely by supply and demand. The Groups cash balances in RMB as of
December 31, 2008, 2009 and 2010 were RMB210,318,000, RMB180,174,000, and RMB350,501,290 respectively.

During the
periods, the Group incurred foreign currency risk mainly on sales denominated in US$, and Yen. The Group did not enter into any foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge against exchange rate fluctuations.

Concentration of credit risk

Financial instruments that potentially expose the Group to concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash and accounts receivable. The Group places their cash with financial institutions with high
credit ratings and quality.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES(Continued)



Recently issued accounting standards not yet adopted

In September 2009, the FASB issued an authoritative pronouncement regarding revenue arrangements with multiple deliverables. This
pronouncement was issued in response to practice concerns related to accounting for revenue arrangements with multiple deliverables under the existing pronouncement. Although the new pronouncement retains the criteria from the existing pronouncement
for when delivered items in a multiple-deliverable arrangement should be considered separate units of accounting, it removes the separation criterion under the existing pronouncement that objective and reliable evidence of the fair value of any
undelivered items must exist for the delivered items to be considered a separate unit or separate units of accounting. The new pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Entities can elect to apply this
pronouncement prospectively to new or materially modified arrangements after the pronouncements effective date or retrospectively for all periods presented. Early application is permitted. However, if the entity elects prospective application
and early adopts this pronouncement after its first interim reporting period, it must also retrospectively apply this pronouncement as of the beginning of that fiscal year and disclose the effect of the retrospective adjustments on the prior interim
periods revenue, income before taxes, net income, and earnings per share. The Company does not expect the adoption of this pronouncement to have a significant impact on its financial condition or results of operations.

In September 2009, the FASB issued an authoritative pronouncement regarding software revenue recognition for arrangements with multiple
deliverables. This pronouncement addresses how consideration should be allocated to different units of accounting and removes the previous criterion that entities must use objective and reliable evidence of fair value in separately accounting for
deliverables. The pronouncement provides that products containing both software and non-software components that function together to deliver the products essential functionality are excluded from the scope of current revenue recognition
guidance for software products. The pronouncement includes factors that entities should consider when determining whether the software and non-software components function together to deliver the products essential functionality. The
pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Entities can elect to apply this pronouncement prospectively to new or materially modified arrangements after the pronouncements effective date, or
retrospectively for all periods presented. Early application is permitted. However, if the entity elects prospective application and early adopts this pronouncement after its first interim reporting period, it must also retrospectively apply this
pronouncement as of the beginning of that fiscal year and disclose the effect of the retrospective adjustments on the prior interim periods revenue, income before taxes, net income, and earnings per share. The Company does not expect the
adoption of this pronouncement to have a significant impact on its financial condition or results of operations.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES(Continued)



Recently issued accounting standards not yet adopted(Continued)



In January, 2010, the FASB issued authoritative guidance to improve disclosures about
fair value measurements. This guidance amends previous guidance on fair value measurements to add new requirements for disclosures about transfers into and out of Levels 1 and 2 and separate disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and
settlements relating to Level 3 measurement on a gross basis rather than as a net basis as currently required. This guidance also clarifies existing fair value disclosures about the level of disaggregation and about inputs and valuation techniques
used to measure fair value. This guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the requirement to provide the Level 3 activities of purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements on a gross
basis, which will be effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2010. Early application is permitted and in the period of initial adoption, entities are not required to provide the amended disclosures for any previous
periods presented for comparative purposes. The Group has adopted this pronouncement except for the requirement to provide the Level 3 activities of purchases, sales, issuances and settlements on a gross basis. The adoption of this pronouncement
does not have a significant effect on its consolidated financial position or result of operations.

In April 2010, the FASB
issued an authoritative pronouncement regarding the milestone method of revenue recognition. The scope of this pronouncement is limited to arrangements that include milestones relating to research or development deliverables. The pronouncement
specifies criteria that must be met for a vendor to recognize consideration that is contingent upon achievement of a substantive milestone in its entirety in the period in which the milestone is achieved. The criteria apply to milestones in
arrangements within the scope of this pronouncement regardless of whether the arrangement is determined to have single or multiple deliverables or units of accounting. The pronouncement will be effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within
those years, beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Early application is permitted. Affected entities can apply this guidance prospectively to milestones achieved after adoption. However, retrospective application to all prior periods is also
permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the effect of adoption of this pronouncement.

In July 2010, the FASB
issued an authoritative pronouncement on disclosure about the credit quality of financing receivables and the allowance for credit losses. The objective of this guidance is to provide financial statement users with greater transparency about an
entitys allowance for credit losses and the credit quality of its financing receivables. The guidance requires an entity to provide disclosures on a disaggregated basis on two defined levels: (1) portfolio segment; and (2) class of
financing receivable. The guidance includes additional disclosure requirements about financing receivables, including: (1) Credit quality indicators of financing receivables at the end of the reporting period by class of financing receivables;
(2) The aging of past due financing receivables at the end of the reporting period by class of financing receivables; and (3) The nature and extent of troubled debt restructurings that occurred during the period by class of financing
receivables and their effect on the allowance for credit losses. For public entities, the disclosures as of the end of a reporting period are effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending on or after December 15, 2010. The
disclosures about activity that occurs during a reporting period are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2010. The adoption of this pronouncement does not have a significant effect on its
consolidated financial position or result of operations.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES(Continued)



Recently issued accounting standards not yet adopted(Continued)



In December 2010, the FASB issued an authoritative pronouncement on when to perform step
2 of the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts. The amendments in this update modify step 1 so that for those reporting units, an entity is required to perform step 2 of the goodwill impairment test if
it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists. In determining whether it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists, an entity should consider whether there are any adverse qualitative factors indicating that an
impairment may exist. The qualitative factors are consistent with existing guidance, which requires that goodwill of a reporting unit be tested for impairment between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely
than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. For public entities, the guidance is effective for impairment tests performed during entities fiscal years (and interim periods within those years) that begin after
December 15, 2010. Early adoption will not be permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of this pronouncement to have a significant impact on its financial condition or results of operations.

In December 2010, the FASB issued an authoritative pronouncement on disclosure of supplementary pro forma information for business
combinations. The objective of this guidance is to address diversity in practice regarding the interpretation of the pro forma revenue and earnings disclosure requirements for business combinations. The amendments in this update specify that if a
public entity presents comparative financial statements, the entity should disclose revenue and earnings of the combined entity as though the business combination(s) that occurred during the current year had occurred as of the beginning of the
comparable prior annual reporting period only. The amendments also expand the supplemental pro forma disclosures to include a description of the nature and amount of material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments directly attributable to the business
combination included in the reported pro forma revenue and earnings. The amendments affect any public entity as defined by Topic 805 Business Combinations that enters into business combinations that are material on an individual
or aggregate basis. The amendments will be effective for business combinations consummated in periods beginning after December 15, 2010, and should be applied prospectively as of the date of adoption. Early adoption is permitted. The Company
does not expect the adoption of this pronouncement to have a significant impact on its financial condition or results of operations.

ACQUISITIONS

(a) Acquisition of business of Wuxi Huayang

On July 1, 2007, the Group acquired the operating assets and liabilities of Wuxi Huayang, including a 49% noncontrolling interest in
Wuxi iSoftStone for the purpose of establishing a service delivery center in Wuxi, with an initial cash consideration of $779, which was paid in 2007.

The transaction was accounted for as a business combination using the purchase method of accounting. The purchase price allocation of the transaction, based on the initial consideration, was determined by
the Group with the assistance of American Appraisal China Limited, an independent valuation firm, and the purchase price allocation to assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the date of acquisition is as follows:

3. ACQUISITIONS(Continued)



(a) Acquisition of business of Wuxi Huayang(Continued)



An additional cash consideration, based on the performance of the acquired business in
2007 and 2008 was subsequently determined to be $1,107, of which was paid in 2009. The additional consideration was recorded as an addition to the goodwill in 2009.

The Group is also obligated to pay additional performance-based cash consideration at twice the audited net income of the acquired business for the period from July 1, 2007 to June 30, 2010,
plus $134 and less previously paid cash consideration of $1,886. In October 2010, the Group entered into a settlement agreement with the selling shareholders and fixed the additional cash consideration at $674, of which $629 were paid in December
2010, and was recorded as an addition to the goodwill in 2010.

The goodwill is mainly attributable to intangible assets that
cannot be recognized separately as identifiable assets under U.S. GAAP, and comprise (a) the assembled work force, and (b) the expected but unidentifiable business growth as a result of the synergy resulting from the acquisition.

The operating results of the acquired business of Wuxi Huayang have been included in the Groups consolidated financial
statements since the date of acquisition.

(b) Acquisition of business of Jiefeng

On January 1, 2008, the Group acquired the IT service operations of Jiefeng, an information technology outsourcing service provider
based in Shanghai, China for the purpose of establishing stronger relationship with a long-time significant client and acquiring professionals with expertise in website technologies.

The purchase price of transaction was $2,787, consisting of:



| |  |  | Deferred payable of $2,713 which recorded at its present value of $2,596 at the acquisition date of which $836 and $1,877 were paid in 2008 and
2009, respectively.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | 1,004,500 ordinary shares of the Company valued at $0.19 per share and issued at the acquisition date.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The difference between the cash consideration $2,713 and its present value of $2,596 as of the acquisition date is accreted as interest
expense over the payment term using effective interest rate method. The Group recognized $53 and $64 of interest expense for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2009, respectively.

The transaction was accounted for as a business combination using the purchase method of accounting. The value of the ordinary shares and
the purchase price allocation of the transaction were determined by the Group with the assistance of American Appraisal China Limited, an independent valuation firm, and the purchase price allocation to assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of
the date of acquisition is as follows:

The goodwill is mainly attributable to intangible assets that cannot be recognized separately as
identifiable assets under U.S. GAAP, and comprise (a) the assembled work force and (b) the expected but unidentifiable business growth as a result of the synergy resulting from the acquisition.

The change in fair value of the contingent consideration from the date of acquisition to December 31, 2010 was determined to be an
increase in liability of $62, which was recognized as a loss in the consolidated statement of operations in 2010.

The
operating results of Shanghai Kangshi have been included in the Groups consolidated financial statements since the date of acquisition.

Unbilled accounts receivable represents amounts earned under contracts in progress but not billable at the
respective balance sheet dates. These amounts become billable according to the contract terms, which usually consider the achievement of certain milestones or the completion of the project.

An analysis of the allowance for doubtful accounts is as follows:

investor at a cash consideration of $664. After the completion of the sale, the Group holds 20% equity interest in Wuxi iCarnegie. As a result, the Group has deconsolidated Wuxi iCarnegie from the date of disposal. As the Group continues to have the
ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial decisions of Wuxi iCarnegie, the Group has adopted the equity method to account for its investment in Wuxi iCarnegie. The gain on deconsolidation of Wuxi iCarnegie is
computed as follows:

|Fair value of consideration received (cash proceeds)             |  | $       | 664   |  
|Fair value of retained noncontrolling interest in Wuxi iCarnegie |  |         | 288   |  
|Carrying value of noncontrolling interest in Wuxi iCarnegie      |  |         | (67   | )
|Carrying value of Wuxi iCarnegie at the date of disposal         |  |         | 194   |  
|                                                                 |  |         |       |  
|Gain on deconsolidation of Wuxi iCarnegie                        |  | $       | 1,079 |  
|                                                                 |  |         |       |

|(v) | In September 2007, iSoftStone WFOE acquired 20% equity interest in Beijing iSoftStone Boxin Technology Company Limited (Boxin) for a cash consideration of
$105. In 2009, the shareholder of Boxin agreed to increase the paid-in capital of Boxin and accordingly iSoftStone WFOE proportionately paid additional cash contribution of $165 to Boxin. Since the other shareholder has the sole right to determine
the executive director of Boxin and, accordingly the Group does not have the ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial decisions of Boxin, the Group uses the cost method to account for its investment in Boxin.

12. INCOME TAXES(Continued)



PRC

The Groups PRC entities are subject to the New Enterprise Income Tax (EIT) Law. The statutory EIT rate for companies operating in the PRC was 25% since January 1, 2008.

Various entities of the Group enjoyed certain preferential tax rates as follows:

Under the New EIT Law, an enterprise which qualifies as a high and new technology enterprise (the new HNTE) is
entitled to a tax rate of 15%.

iSoftStone WFOE and Zhiruan obtained the new HNTE status in 2008. iSoftStone WFOE, which
qualified as HNTE was entitled to a preferential tax rate of 15% with three-year exemption starting from 2006 followed by a reduced tax rate of 7.5% for the subsequent three years from 2009 to 2011. After the New EIT law was adopted, the Group had
received confirmation from the relevant local tax district that it continued to pay tax at the rate of 7.5% for 2009 and 2010. Zhiruan enjoyed a preferential tax rate of 15% from 2008 to 2010.

The new HNTE status obtained by iSoftStone WFOE and Zhiruan in 2008 under the New EIT Law was valid for three years and qualifying
entities can then apply to renew for an additional three years provided their business operations continue to qualify for the new HNTE status. The Group believes it is highly likely that its qualifying entities will continue to obtain the renewal in
the future.

Accordingly, in calculating deferred tax assets and liabilities, the Group has assumed its qualifying entities
will continue to renew the new HNTE status at the conclusion of the initial three-year period. If the Groups qualifying entities failed to obtain such renewals, then the net deferred tax assets balance would increase by $2,394 as of
December 31, 2010, which would be an increase to the income tax benefit.

iSoftStone Wuxi qualified as software
enterprise and enjoyed two-year income tax exemption started from 2008, followed by a reduced tax rate of 12.5% for the subsequent three years from 2010 to 2012.

iSoftStone Tianjin qualified as software enterprise and enjoyed two-year income tax exemptions starting from the first profit making year, followed by a reduced tax rate of 12.5% for the
subsequent three years. iSoftStone Tianjin started making profits in year 2010 and therefore its tax rates in the year 2009 and 2010 were zero, respectively.

12. INCOME TAXES(Continued)



PRC(Continued)



The Group had net operating losses of $11,361 and $21,722 from the
Companys subsidiaries as of December 31, 2009 and December 31, 2010, respectively. The net operating loss carry forwards generated by a particular entity in the Group cannot be transferred or utilized by other entities within the
Group. As of December 31, 2009 and 2010, valuation allowance was $1,303 and $3,280, respectively, which were provided against deferred tax assets arising from net operating losses of certain subsidiaries due to the uncertainty of realization.

The net operating loss carry forwards for the Companys subsidiaries other than Hong Kong as of
December 31, 2010 will expire on various dates through 2030. For Hong Kong, the net operating loss will be carried forward indefinitely.

Reconciliation between the statutory PRC enterprise income tax rate of 25% to the effective tax rate is as follows:

If the tax holidays including tax exemption and preferential tax rates granted to iSoftStone
WFOE, iSoftStone Tianjin iSoftStone Wuxi, Zhiruan and Shanghai Kangshi were not available, provisions for income taxes and net income per share would have been as follows:

The Group did not identify significant unrecognized tax benefits for years ended
December 31, 2008, 2009 and 2010. The Group did not incur any interest and penalties related to potential underpaid income tax expenses and also believed that the adoption of pronouncement issued by FASB regarding accounting for uncertainty in
income taxes did not have a significant impact on the unrecognized tax benefits within 12 months from December 31, 2010.

Since January 1, 2007, the relevant tax authorities of the Groups subsidiaries have not conducted a tax examination on the Groups subsidiaries. In accordance with relevant PRC tax
administration laws, tax years from 2005 to 2010 of the Groups PRC subsidiaries and VIE remain subject to tax audits, at the tax authoritys discretion.

(In U.S. dollars in thousands, except share and per share data, or otherwise noted)



12. INCOME TAXES(Continued)



PRC(Continued)



Uncertainties exist with respect to how the current income tax law in
the PRC applies to the Groups overall operations, and more specifically, with regard to tax residency status. The New EIT Law includes a provision specifying that legal entities organized outside of the PRC will be considered residents for
Chinese Income tax purposes if the place of effective management or control is within the PRC. The implementation rules to the New EIT Law provide that non-resident legal entities will be considered China residents if substantial and overall
management and control over the manufacturing and business operations, personnel, accounting, properties, etc., occurs within the PRC. Despite the present uncertainties resulting from the limited PRC tax guidance on the issue, the Group does not
believe that the legal entities organized outside of the PRC within the Group should be treated as residents for EIT law purposes. If the PRC tax authorities subsequently determine that the Company and its subsidiaries registered outside the PRC
should be deemed resident enterprises, the Company and its subsidiaries registered outside the PRC will be subject to the PRC income taxes, at a rate of 25%.

If the Company were to be non-resident for the PRC tax purpose, dividends paid to it by its PRC subsidiaries out of profits earned after January 1, 2008 would be subject to a PRC withholding tax at
10%.

Aggregate undistributed earnings of the Companys subsidiaries located in the PRC that are available
for distribution to the Company of approximately $21,943 at December 31, 2010 are considered to be indefinitely reinvested, and accordingly, no provision has been made for the Chinese dividend withholding taxes that would be payable upon the
distribution of those amounts to the Company. The Chinese tax authorities have also clarified that distributions made out of pre-January 1, 2008 retained earnings will not be subject to the withholding tax.

13. NET INCOME PER SHARE

The calculation of the earnings per share is as follows:

17. CONVERTIBLE PREFERENCE SHARES

Series A Convertible Preference Shares

On November 16, 2005,
the Company issued 64,983,166 series A convertible preference shares (series A shares) and warrants to purchase 16,835,017 series A shares at exercise price of $0.1485 per share to third party investors for cash proceeds of $9,650, at an
issuance price of $0.1485 per series A share.

Both the series A shares and the warrants were determined as equity instruments
by the Company and the Company applied the relative-fair-value method to allocate the proceeds between the series A shares and the warrants. Accordingly, the warrants were recorded at $673, and preference shares were recorded at $8,977 respectively
as of the date of issuance.

On April 28, 2006, the Company issued additional 13,468,012 series A shares to a third party
investor for cash proceeds of $2,000, at an issuance price of $0.1485 per series A share.

On March 13, 2007, 16,835,017
warrants were exercised, and the Company issued 16,835,017 series A shares, and received cash proceeds of $2,500.

The Company
had determined that there was no beneficial conversion feature attributable to the series A shares because the initial and subsequently adjusted conversion price of series A shares was higher than the fair value of the Companys ordinary shares
on issue date of series A shares.

Series A shares were not redeemable.

Key terms of the series A shares are summarized as follows:

Dividends

The dividend rate for series A shares was 8% per annum. The
dividend should be payable when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors, and prior and in preference to any declaration or payment of any dividend on the ordinary shares. Such dividends should not be cumulative. After payment of such
dividends, any additional dividends or distributions should be distributed among all holders of ordinary shares and preference shares in proportion on as-converted basis.

Liquidation preference

In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or
winding up of the Company, either voluntary or involuntary, distributions to the shareholders of the Company should be made in the following manners: the holders of series A shares should be entitled to receive an amount equaled to the sum of
original issuance price plus any declared but unpaid dividends, prior to and in preference to any distribution of any of the assets or surplus funds to the holders of the ordinary shares and any other class or series of shares. If there were still
remaining proceeds available for distribution, it should be distributed among the holder of series A shares and ordinary shares pro rata on as-converted basis. For the remaining proceeds with respect to series A shareholders distribution,
total distribution per share should be limited to 200% of the series A original issue price of $0.1485 per share.

As of
December 31, 2009, the liquidation value of series A shares was $3,747.

Voting rights

Each series A shareholder had a number of voting rights equivalent to the number of ordinary shareholders voting rights, upon series
A shares conversion into ordinary shares at the record date for determination of the shareholders entitled to vote on related matters.

17. CONVERTIBLE PREFERENCE SHARES(Continued)



Conversion

Each series A share should be convertible, at the option of the holder thereof, at any time after the series A shares original date
of issuance, into such number of fully paid and nonassessable ordinary shares as determined by dividing the series A shares original issue price by series A share conversion price.

The initial conversion ratio should be on a one for one basis, which is subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments and adjustments for
future issuances of shares at a price lower than the issuance price of the series A shares.

Each series A share would
automatically be converted into ordinary share at the then effective series A conversion price, upon the earlier, of (i) the date specified by vote or written consent or agreement of holders of at least a majority of the shares of each such
series then outstanding, or (ii) immediately prior to but contingent upon the closing of a Qualified IPO.

In December
2010, all Series A shares were automatically converted into 95,286,195 ordinary shares upon the IPO of the Company.

Series B
Convertible Redeemable Preference Shares

On March 16, 2007, the Company issued 84,440,020 series B convertible
redeemable preference shares (series B shares) and warrants to purchase 84,440,020 series B shares to third party investors for cash proceeds of $19,425, net of issuance costs of $575, at an issuance price of $0.2369 per series B
share (series B Original Issue Price) and exercise price of $0.2961 per warrant of series B share, respectively.

The warrants were determined by the Company as liabilities because the exercise of the warrants will result in the delivery of redeemable
preference shares. The warrants were initially recorded at fair value of $2,246 on the date of grant, and were subsequently re-measured at fair value as of each reporting date. As of December 31, 2007, the fair value of the warrants was $3,665
and the change in fair value of $1,419 was recognized in the consolidated statements of operations in 2007. On February 22, 2008, 84,440,020 warrants were exercised and the Company issued 84,440,020 series B shares, for cash proceeds of
$24,500, net of issuance costs of $500. The carrying amount and fair value of the warrants was $4,341 as of February 22, 2008 and was recorded in series B shares at that date. The change in fair value of $676 was recognized in the consolidated
statements of operations in 2008.

The series B shares were initially recorded at $17,179 using residual method.

The Company had determined that there was no beneficial conversion feature attributable to the series B shares because the initial
conversion price of series B shares was higher than the fair value of the Companys ordinary shares on issue date of series B shares.

Key terms of the series B shares are summarized as follows:

Voting rights

Series B shareholders were entitled to the number of votes equaled to the number of ordinary shares into which such
preference shares could be converted at the record date.

Dividends

No dividend should be paid on the ordinary shares at a rate higher than the rate at which dividends were paid on the series A shares and
series B shares (based on the number of ordinary shares into which the series A shares and the series B shares were convertible on the date the dividend is declared).

Liquidation preference

shareholders of the Company should be made in the following manners: the holders of series B shares should be entitled to receive, prior to and in preference to any distribution to the holders of the ordinary shares or any other class or series of
shares, the amount equaled to 150% of the Series B Original Issue Price (as adjusted for share dividends, share combination, share splits reorganizations, reclassifications, consolidations, or mergers and the like with respect to such shares) and in
addition, an amount equaled to all declared but unpaid dividends thereon.

As of December 31, 2009, the liquidation value
of the series B shares was $67,497.

Redemption

Upon the occurrence of any of the following events at the request of any holders of series B shares, the Company should redeem all or a
part the series B shares, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the series B Original Issue Price per share plus an rate of return of 6% per annum, less all declared dividends (whether paid or unpaid) thereon up to the redemption date,
proportionally adjusted for share subdivisions, share dividends, reorganizations, reclassifications, consolidations, or mergers:

| | (ii) | Prior to the
5thanniversary of the series B original issue date, the

Chief Executive Office (CEO) of the Group (other than due to unilateral termination of the employment relationship by the Board without cause); or

Each series B share should be convertible, at the option of the holder thereof, at any time after the series B shares original date of issuance, into such number of fully paid and nonassessable
ordinary shares as determined by dividing the series B shares original issue price by series B shares conversion price.

The
initial conversion ratio should be on a one for one basis, which is subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments and adjustments for future issuances of shares at a price lower than the issuance price of the series B shares.

| |  |  | Initial Maturity DateDecember 23, 2012;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------



| |  |  | Extended Maturity DateIn the event that no IPO or Company Sale (defined as transactions through which the equity holders of the Company

| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Redemption and price(Continued)



Conversion and price



| |  |  | Mandatory conversion upon Company Sale: Immediately prior to and subject to the completion of a Company Sale, all of the then outstanding principal
amount of these Notes and the accrued and unpaid interest thereon shall be automatically converted into such number of ordinary shares at the conversion price set out below.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Optional Conversion upon IPO: At any time during the 12 months after the completion of an IPO, the Notes holders of these Notes shall have the right to
convert these Notes in whole, into such number of duly authorized, fully paid and non-assessable Ordinary Shares at the conversion price set out below.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Conversion price is computed with following formula:
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------

Conversion Price = IPO Price or Company Sale Price / ((1+ 0.082254247%) (number of days lapsed between the date of the Notes and the IPO or Company Sale date))

0.082254247% is the daily compound rate based on a 365-day year that would result in an annual return of 35%.



| |  |  | If the Company issues additional equity securities other than ordinary shares that are convertible into ordinary shares at a price based on a discount
of the IPO price or Company Sale price where the Company guarantees the purchaser of such convertible equity securities at an annual return of more than 35%, the above compound rate used for calculating conversion rice shall be adjusted according to
the higher rate of return.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The conversion price has a standard anti-dilution adjustment term. It also has a down-round provision. If the Company, after the completion of an IPO,
issues any additional ordinary shares or equity security at a price per share that is lower than the conversion price per share then in effect, then the conversion price per share is adjusted down.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The return rate reset feature, which increases the redemption price of the Notes to give the Notes holders an annual rate of return of
18% rather than 10% if an IPO is completed before Initial Maturity Date or the Extended Maturity Date, were determined to be an embedded derivate and was bifurcated for measurement purposes and is presented on a combined basis with the Notes. The
initial fair value of the embedded derivative was $1,706 as of December 23, 2009. And the fair value change from December 23, 2009 to December 31, 2009 was determined insignificant.

The fair value of the embedded derivative of $1,706 as of December 23, 2009, determined with the assistance of American Appraisal
China Limited, an independent valuation firm, and the issuance costs of $198 resulted in a debt discount of $1,904. The debt discount was amortized into interest expenses over the term of the Notes using effective interest method. For the year ended
December 31, 2009, the Group incurred $63 interest expense relating to the Notes, of which $62 represented the amortization of the debt discount and $1 represented the coupon interest.

Upon the issuance of additional Notes in April 2010, the initial embedded derivative attached to the second tranche of the Notes was $488
at the issuance date. Upon the Companys IPO on December 14, 2010, the return rate of the Notes was reset to 18%, and accordingly, the fair value of the two tranches of embedded derivative totaled $8,904. A loss of $2,365 was recorded as
the change in fair value of the return rate reset in the statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2010.

A
debt discount of $2,759 was recorded to account for the initial fair value of the two tranches of the embedded derivate and the total issuance cost. The debt discount was amortized into interest expenses over the term of the Notes using effective
interest method. For the year ended December 31, 2010, the Group incurred $4,418 interest expense relating to the Notes, of which $133 represented the amortization of the debt discount and $4,285 represented the coupon interest.

In December 2010, Notes at the principal amount of $18,000 were converted into 18,381,991 ordinary shares upon the IPO of the Company.
For the remaining Notes at the principal amount of $20,000, the Note holders have the right to convert it into ordinary shares during the twelve months after the completion of an IPO. As a consequence, when the shares were readily convertible into
cash upon the completion of the IPO, the conversion right met the definition of a derivative which required to be bifurcated for measurement purposes. As of December 14, 2010, the fair values of the conversion right and the debt host for the
remaining Notes of $20,000 were $2,841 and $17,159, respectively. As of December 31, 2010, the fair values of the conversion right and the debt host were $8,904 and $20,511, respectively. The fair value of the conversion right was determined by the
Group with the assistance of American Appraisal, and the fair value change from December 14, 2010 to December 31, 2010 was determined to be $6,063, which was recorded as a loss in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December
31, 2010.

No share option was
exercised in 2008, 400,000 and 80,000 share options were exercised in 2009 and 2010 respectively. Total intrinsic value of options exercised in 2009 and 2010 was $72 and $116 respectively, as the fair value of the options exercised exceeded its
exercise price.

The fair value of each option granted was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option
pricing model with the following assumptions used for grants during the applicable periods:

21. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION(Continued)



Share options(Continued)



Options to non-employees(Continued)



(1) Volatility

The volatility of the underlying ordinary shares during the life of the options was estimated based on the historical stock price
volatility of listed comparable companies over a period comparable to the expected term of the options.

(2) Risk-free
interest rate

Risk-free interest rate was estimated based on the yield to maturity of China international government bonds
with a maturity period close to the expected term of the options.

(3) Expected term

For the options granted to employees, as the Company did not have sufficient historical share option exercise experience, it estimated the
expected term as the average between the vesting term of the options and the original contractual term.

For the options
granted to non-employees, the Company estimated the expected term as the original contractual term.

(4) Dividend yield

The dividend yield was estimated by the Group based on its expected dividend policy over the expected term of the options.

(5) Exercise price

The exercise price of the options was determined by the Groups board of directors.

(6) Fair value of underlying ordinary shares

Before the IPO, the estimated
fair value of the ordinary shares underlying the options as of the respective grant dates was determined based on a retrospective valuation. When estimating the fair value of the ordinary shares on the grant dates, management has considered a number
of factors, including the result of a third-party appraisal by American Appraisal China Limited and equity transactions of the Company, while taking into account standard valuation methods and the achievement of certain events. The determination of
fair value of the ordinary shares was also with the assistance of American Appraisal China Limited, an independent third party valuation specialist.

Since the IPO, the Company has not granted any share options, and if granted, the closing market price of the ordinary shares of the Company as of the grant date will be used as the fair value of the
ordinary shares on that date.

For employee share options, the Group recorded share-based compensation of $544, $1,936 and
$3,077 during the years ended December 31, 2008, 2009 and 2010, respectively, based on the fair value on the grant dates over the requisite service period of award using the straight-line method.

For non-employee share options the Group recorded share-based compensation of $792, $328 and $999 during the years ended
December 31, 2008, 2009 and 2010, respectively, based on the fair value on the grant dates over the requisite service period of award using the straight-line method.

As of December 31, 2010, total unrecognized compensation expense relating to unvested share options was $10, 900. The amount is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of two years
using the straight-line method.

21. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION(Continued)



Nonvested shares

The Group agreed to grant certain ordinary shares to certain employees of the Group in connection with the acquisition of Kebao in 2006, the acquisition of MDCL in 2009 and the employment of certain other
employees. The Group has the right to repurchase these shares for free if the grantees terminate their continuous employment within a period of 24-36 months from the date of grant. The arrangements were considered a share-based compensation
arrangement and the shares were treated as nonvested shares.

The following table summarizes information regarding the
nonvested shares granted:

|(i) | At the time of the acquisition of MDCL in March 2009, the Group entered into arrangements with certain selling shareholders in MDCL who became employees whereby such
employees were to receive 180,031 shares which vested at the end of a service period of 24 months from the date of the acquisition.
|--- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In April 2010, the Group entered into revised agreements with those employees to modify the previous terms of the award. Under the terms of the modification:



| |  |  | 36,209 shares vested immediately and $8 unrecognized share-based compensation expense was immediately recognized as of the modification date;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the Group replaced the remaining fixed number of unvested shares with an obligation to issue a variable number of ordinary shares at the end of
the 24 month service period. The variable number of shares is to be determined by dividing $68 by the fair value of the ordinary shares upon the vesting date. This resulted in the award being reclassified from an equity award into a liability award
under which the fair value of the award is remeasured at each reporting date. As a result, $40 previously recorded share-based compensation within equity was re-classified as a liability on the date of modification and remeasured at each period end
by the Group, with the assistance of American Appraisal China Limited, an independent valuation firm . As of December 31, 2010, the share-based compensation liability was carried at $62.

(In U.S. dollars in thousands, except share and per share data, or otherwise noted)



21. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION(Continued)



Nonvested shares(Continued)



The fair value of the nonvested shares was determined at the grant dates by the Group
with the assistance of American Appraisal China Limited, an independent valuation firm. The Group recognized $52, $86 and $50 shares based compensation expense for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2009 and 2010, respectively.

As of December 31, 2010, total unrecognized compensation expense relating to the nonvested shares was $6. The amount is expected to
be recognized over a weighted average period of 0.10 years using the straight-line method.

Other share-based compensation arrangements

In April 2010, the Company entered into a performance-based share incentive agreement with certain employees to
compensate their performance-based services for the period from year 2007 to 2010.

Pursuant to such agreement, 1,739,130
ordinary shares, valued at $0.54 per share, were issued on April 18, 2010 to compensate these employees past services. The ordinary shares were valued by the Group, with the assistance of American Appraisal China Limited, an independent
valuation firm.

On June 30, 2010, 2,760,870 ordinary shares, valued at $0.64 per share, were further issued, to
compensate these employees past services. The ordinary shares were valued by the Group, with the assistance of American Appraisal China Limited, an independent valuation firm.

The total 4,500,000 shares issued were considered as share-based compensations and $2,706, the fair value of the ordinary shares as of
the grant dates, were charged into the consolidated statement of operations immediately. In addition, the Group also agreed to issue up to 1,000,000 of the Companys shares to these employees based on their performance in the year 2010. The
Group recognized $640 compensation expenses for the year ended December 31, 2010 relating to this share-based compensation arrangement.

In October 2010, the Group sold 461,000 and 700,000 of the treasury shares at the price of $0.51 and $0.30 per share, respectively, to a former employee. The $861 excess of the fair value of the ordinary
shares, which is determined as $1.125 at the selling date by the Company, over the purchase price were treated as share-based compensation expense and reflected in the statements of operations.

In November 2010, the Group agreed to issue 324,849 ordinary shares to a consultant who introduced business to iSoftStone Data and
recognized $191 share-based compensation expense for the year ended December 31, 2010.

ISOFTSTONE HOLDINGS LIMITED

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)

FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2008, 2009 AND 2010

(In U.S. dollars in thousands, except share and per share data, or otherwise noted)



22. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS(Continued)



Measured on recurring basis(Continued)



The Group measured the fair value of the contingent considerations considering, among
other factors, forecasted financial performance of the acquired businesses, market performance, and the market potential of the acquired businesses. These contingent considerations are considered Level 3 liabilities because the Group used
unobservable inputs, reflecting the Groups assessment of the assumptions market participants would use in valuing these assets and liabilities.

The Group measures the return rate reset feature of the convertible notes using with & without valuation method. The derivative was considered a Level 3 liability because the Group
used unobservable inputs, such as the estimation of the probability return rate reset occurring and appropriate discount rate, to determine the fair value of the derivatives.

The fair value of the conversion right feature of convertible notes was determined by the Group with the assistance of American Appraisal China Limited, an independent valuation firm, using the Binomial
option pricing model with assumptions as follows:

Measured on non-recurring basis

In January 2010, the FASB issued authoritative guidance to improve disclosures about fair value measurements. This
guidance amends previous guidance on fair value measurements to add new requirements for disclosures about transfers into and out of Levels 1 and 2 and separate disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements relating to Level 3
measurement on a gross basis rather than on a net basis as currently required. This guidance also clarifies existing fair value disclosures about the level of disaggregation and about inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value. This
guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the requirement to provide the Level 3 activities of purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements on a gross basis, which will be effective for annual
and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2010. Early application is permitted and, in the period of initial adoption, entities are not required to provide the amended disclosures for any previous periods presented for comparative purposes.
The adoption of this pronouncement did not have any significant impact on the Companys financial condition or results of operations.

The Groups financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis include acquired assets and liabilities at initial recognition based on Level 3 inputs in connection with
business acquisitions.

The Group measured the fair value of the purchased intangible assets using the cost,
income approach-excess earnings and with & without valuation methods. These purchased intangible assets are considered Level 3 assets and liabilities because the Group used unobservable inputs, such as forecasted
financial performance of the acquired business and discount rates, to determine the fair value of these purchased assets/liabilities.
